Description

Limited edition, our of print, hard to find box set. 3 vinyl LPs in excellent condition. I played these albums once to digitize them into MP3s and the box set has been sitting in storage since I bought it. There is a small tear in the packaging (see photos) other than than this is a solid clean set. "From the seemingly bottomless vaults of Trojan Records comes this very fine collection of dub from the '70s: reggae's classical period and the high point of dub as a producer's art form. One in a series of limited-edition box sets, this set features 50 tracks on three discs at three-for-two pricing with attractive, no-frills packaging. The bands featured include such eminencies as the Upsetters, Soul Syndicate, the Aggrovators, and the Revolutionaries, all of them at various times the house bands for the best studios in Jamaica. The producers responsible for the dub mixes presented here are primarily the grand masters of the genre: King Tubby, Scientist, Prince Jammy, and Lee "Scratch" Perry. Highlight tracks include the seriously twisted "Casanova Dub" (by the Observer All Stars), "Strictly Dub" (one of many versions of Rupie Edwards' hugely popular "Everyday Wandering" rhythm), andKing Tubby's bracingly minimalist "Dancing Version." If you only feel you need one dub collection, this one should be it."
