Disaster And Signs

Tuff Scout

Soulful, enraptured excursion on God I God I Say, with a lovely melodica dub.

Bump And The Soul Stompers

I Can Remember

Numero

Invoking The Delfonics’ Do You Remember, and flipping its melody the other way around. Recorded at the Damon Studios in Kansas City (owned by Victor Damon, inventor of the spring reverb).

Cuts And Bruises

Uprising / Digikiller

A melodica instrumental right up there with his very best cuts. A lot more exalted — Rockers International style — than his Studio One killers.

Family Man Barrett

Distant Drums

Fam's / Dub Store

Deeper-than-Spinoza, heavier-than-lead nyabinghi cut of Yabby You’s awesome Love Thy Neighbours (itself produced by Family Man, in 1974). You can’t touch Tubby’s dub on the original Defenders 7”... but both versions here are uncompromisingly dread, and essential in their own right.

Family Man Barrett

Eastern Memphis

Cobra / Dub Store

Giddily killer, unutterably majestic horns-led instrumental by the legendary bassist, alongside his co-Wailers.
Tubbys murder on the flip.
Brilliantly reissued by Dub Store, in Tokyo.

Max Edwards

Gideons High

Gideon / Dub Store

Mesmeric, spare, funky, forward-looking dubs led by the Soul Syndicate drummer.

Sugar Minott

Unity

Archive

Top-quality, previously-unreleased Sugar, in fine voice at Joe Gibbs. Strong rhythm, too, rich and moody.

Pablo Moses

We Should Be In Angola
