5 tracks that have been spending alot of time on the platter and "on air" on my Radio Show, heard on CFBU 103.7 Brock University Radio. (In no particular order...)

1. Freedom Fighter by Bunny and Rickey. Recorded to the Beatdown Babylon rhythm, This track is simply pound for pound one of my Fav tracks (although it is much lesser known) ever to come out of the Black Ark Studio. Also Check out the dub on the flipside of the 7", the Upsetters Iron Wolf. Which is, in my opinion, one of best dubs of all time by Scratch. (released on Black Art. Art6)

2. Pablo In Moonlight City by Agustus Pablo. Middle Eastern Rock at its best! One of the longest songs I've ever been able to find by A.P. At over 5 minutes long, this track keeps building and building. It really has enough time to develop, you can almost imagine Mr.Swaby, cruising on a magic carpet on an Arabian Night! Track found on Hugh Mundell's Jah Fire Album, Produced by King Jammys released on Black Arrow Records (BALP003)

3. Ites Green and Gold by Johnny Clarke. A remake of Burning Spears' Red, Gold and Green from the Classic Marcus Garvey Album. This track is one of my favorite J.C. tracks of all time. This track is a great example of the Amazing things that happened in the recording Studio when King Tubby, Bunny 'Striker' Lee and Mr. Clarke came together as one. The best place to pick up this track is the essential Rockers Time Now (johnny clarke) Album released by The Frontline Label (under Virgin Umbrella, CAR49699)

4. River by Zap Pow. I think the reason why I like this song so much has just as much to do with the time and the place I was when I first heard it as the song itself. Play this one LOUD! This may just be the first Drum and Bass song ever! I found this one on Lee Perry, Voodooism Album (Pressure Sounds 009).

5. Dub Investigator by King Tubbys. I could have put any of at least 50 tracks by King Tubbys in this slot, but this is the latest track to grab my attention. Mr. Ruddock does it again!
re-released by Blood and Fire on the Dub Like Dirt album (SVLP260)
