I am a huge fan of Freddie McGregor's album Bobby Bobylon (
http://www.roots-archives.com/release/650 ). If you have never heard it I highly recommend it.
I am curious if there are any dub versions of any of the tracks from the album.
Thank you!

hi Fashion (Bobby Babylon) is also on the Hi Fashion dub.
Im a revolutionist is on Bionic Dub ( and on the flip of the 45)
the riddims used for Bandulu & Wine of violence are on African Rubadub
rastaman camp 45 features the orignal mix, so different from the album, but it has a wicked version..

There's also a DJ cut of I'm Gonna Take Over Now by Prince Jazzbo on Choice of Version (but over the Ethiopians original not Freddie's vocal).

There's a track on here Rockers Hop that I recognize but can't place. Anyone know who recorded a vocal version of it?
