Scientist Rids the World of the Curse of the Evil Vampires is classic 'n' FANTASTIC darewon!

Has anyone got 'Dubbing With The Royals'? I absolutely love Roy Cousins voice, but don't know this album..

Is it any good?

Hi,

Its excellent, basically the dub to pick up the peices album. Has Prince far I & Knowledge on a couple of tracks and I roy on a couple of tracks.

Recorded at Channel One, Dynamic Sounds, Harry J and King Tubbys and was mixed by Scientist King Tubby, Sylvan Morris, soljie, maxie and so on.

All the major players present(get the picture)just go and buy it.

Hi Dave

I was hoping that was going to be the response! It's been ordered and will be wending it's way to me shortly.

Hi

How about adding

Black Foundation Dub - Augustus Clarke.
Black Foundation in Dud - Jack Ruby.
King Tubby meets Harry Mudie in a Dub Conference(Volumes 1,2 & 3)
Chanting Dub with the Help of the Father - Everton Da Silva.
Dud it to the top - Yabby U.

These are what I have in the car at the moment dubbin it to the people loud and clear.

anyone fancy a vote for Eastman dub by Augustus Pablo? I love it, as the dubs are highly melodious and do not lack that killer element of thrilling, lead weight, brooding bass either.And,,,,a real bonus...the riddims are dubs to Tetrack's Lets get started but are not very well known, overplayed, done to death pieces like bag o wire..On the issue of good dub, Shaka has done some fine albums, with a mystical, religious type feel to them .Anyone like these?

i agree with riddim junkie, people shouldnt muck about with rerggae to suit white ears,,or any ears that don't like heavy roots.Just look at the mess that Aswad and Third World have become now.

Hi Sean,

I have "Jah Shaka meets Aswad in Addis Ababa" and Jah Shaka meets Mad Professor in Addis Ababa". They are good but I wouldn`t say they are amounst my favourite dub albums.

I also had the "Ten Commandments of Dub vol 1" but was not to my tastes as it contained to much of the siren noise that were at that time very popular on his sound system.

I asked about that some time ago on another thread and was told that this is the only one of the Ten Commandments series that used the siren sound effect so the other might be worth a listen.

On Eastmun Dud, I have to agree, its an excellent album although I have ot on the twoofer with Tetracks "Lets get Started" which is also excellent in its own right.

Respect
