| | King Tubby Megawatt Dub CD King Tubby Discography of CDs
 (1 Customer Review)
Fans of classic dub reggae rejoice! This fine disc consists of dub instrumental tracks from the late '70s mixed and engineered by reggae icons King Tubby and Lee Perry, as well as the lesser-known but equally experienced Philip Smart. (Smart would go on to engineer for and produce the Congos and many dancehall favorites, including Spragga Benz and Shinehead.) These songs were originally sung by Watty Burnett before he joined the Congos, and they feature Burnett's soulful voice (the choruses, anyway); deep, dark earthy beats; rich horns; and the universe-turned-inside-out-upside-down sonic treatments by Tubby, Perry, and Smart. Perry takes his version of the soul classic "Rainy Night in Georgia" into the Twilight Zone. Tubby's "Splash Out Dub" is downright eerie, but the song retains its rootsy soul, and one can hear the influence--directly or not--King Tubby has on hip-hop and beat- and sample-driven music. This is not an album for the casual reggae fan, but fans of dub--as well as those who like spaced-out but rhythmic sounds--will treasure this.
Includes liner notes by Watty Burnett.

One of the masterpieces of the roots era, no album better defines its time and place than Two Sevens Clash, which encompasses both the religious fervor of its day and the rich sounds of contemporary Jamaica. Avowed Rastafarians, Culture had formed in 1976, and cut two singles before beginning work on their debut album with producers the Mighty Two (aka Joe Gibbs and Errol Thompson). Their second single, "Two Sevens Clash," would title the album and provide its focal ...

Pete Nelson is certainly not the only storytelling folk singer in the business. It has, in fact, become something of a folk reviewer's cliché to compare a singer/songwriter to a novelist, short story writer, or playwright. But such descriptions are unavoidable in discussions of Nelson's work, and they are even more apt when applied to him than they are to better-known storytellers like Dar Williams, Ellis Paul, and Darryl Purpose. That's because story seems primary to Nelson and music only secondary. On his debut album, ...
