Matisyahu Live At Stubb's: Austin, TX 2/19/05 CD (2005) Digipak

Wideawake: The Dub Tribute To U2

$8.99

This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files.
Personnel: Matisyahu (rap vocals); Aaron Dugan (guitar); Josh Werner (bass guitar); Jonah David (drums); Yoni.
A musical and religious anomaly, Matisyahu (born Matthew Miller) channels his Hasidic Jewish beliefs into deft lyrics unleashed in a surprisingly fierce and proficient raggamuffin style and supported by strong reggae grooves. Here Matisyahu presents his divinely inspired songs live, recorded at 2005's SXSW music festivals, backed by a tight band that is capable of navigating dreamy dub passages ("Fire and Heights") and careening through energetic funk-rock ("Chop 'Em Down").
Offering a taste of Matisyahu's exhilarating live show along with being an alternative to his more complex debut, Live at Stubb's presents "the Hasidic Reggae Superstar" in top ...

Ub40 Signing Off CD (1980)

Wideawake: The Dub Tribute To U2

$9.65

Producers: Bob Lamb, UB40, Ray Pablo Falconer.
Personnel: Ali Campbell, Robin Campbell (vocals, guitar); Norman Hassan (vocals, congas, percussion); Michael Virtue (strings, organ, keyboards); Brian Travers (saxophone, tenor saxophone); Jim Brown (drums).
Recording information: The Music Center.
So ubiquitous is UB40's grip on the pop-reggae market today, that it will be difficult for younger fans to comprehend just how their arrival shook up the British musical scene. They appeared just as Two Tone had peaked and was beginning its slide towards oblivion. Not that it mattered, few but the foolish would try to shoehorn the band into that suit. However, the group were no more comfortable within the UK reggae axis of Steel Pulse, Aswad and Matumbi, and not merely because you can't have four bands in an axis. Their rhythms may have been reggae based, their music Jamaican inspired, but UB40 had such an original take on the genre that all comparisons were moot. ...

Gregory Isaacs Private Beach Party CD (1985)

Wideawake: The Dub Tribute To U2

$12.25

Personnel: Gregory Issacs, Carlene Davis (vocals); Willie Lindo (guitar);
Franklin Waul, Robbie Lyn (piano, synthesizer); Robbie Shakspeare, LLoyd Parks (bass); Sly Dunbar, Willie Stewart (drums); Ras Brass.
Recorded at Dynamic Sounds and Music Mountain Studios, Kingston, Jamaica.
Although it was 1988's Red Rose for Gregory that really fired the imagination of international audiences, Private Beach Party, unleashed three years earlier, was immensely popular in its day, and drove reggae fans worldwide to distraction. Both sets were produced by Gussie Clarke, and boasted some of his most sizzling rhythms.
In 1985, ragga was beginning to steamroll across the Jamaican dancehalls, but Party still has a wonderfully organic quality, even though it's aimed straight at the sound systems. The musicianship is superb, with Sly Dunbar, Willie Stewart, Lloyd Parks, and Robbie Shakespeare laying down the sizzling rhythms, while guitarist ...
