Freedom Song

Park Heights / Digikiller

First time out for this Paragon’s feeling excursion on the same Java re-lick as Roman Stewart’s Rain A Fall.

Trevor Byfield

Love Me Version

Fox Fire / Digikiller

A contender for the heaviest dub of all time.
When the Rootical Dubber had a go at reissuing Trevor Byfield and co, many years ago, he omitted this, saying it was just too awesome to mess with.

Trevor Byfield

Burning Bush

Fox Fire / Digikiller

Heavy roots; thumping dub. Turns out that Moses was being discreet.

Federal / Dub Store

Groovy version of the Deodato-CTI Gershwin interpretation; with a Willie Lindo. The dub does the trick.

We've Only Just Begun

Soul jazz from the jazz pianist plus trio. The first half’s a bit soft, before Aquarius marks the dawning of the funky stuff — Evil Ways, Shaft, Booty Butt — ending with a cooking cover of The Meters’ Funky Miracle.
