Re: Mawamba Dub Chapter 1 / Badda Music label

Marky Dread wrote :BTW, can anyone confirm that this CD does in fact exist?

I can find mentions of it online - reviews, OLD links to it being on sale - but can't find a copy to purchase - even in the usual overpriced channels!
Thanks!

Yes it does, I have this CD. It is infact the "House of DEB" with 5 extra tracks. I already had "House of DEB" but picked up "Return To Umoja" not realising it was the same set with extra tracks.

As it turned out it was a worthwhile purchase as the title track is a pure killer..

Anyway, the 5 added tracks as described on the CD

"Return to Umoja" - Rare Groove melodica by Augustus Pablo with backing vocals supplied by Dennis Brown with the Debwise sound.

"Still Water" - Classic Tamlins track in Dub.

"Words II" - Alternative mix of "The Emperor" with vocals from Earl Cunningham dubwise.

"Grab and Flee" - Classic mix of Junior Delgado`s "Armed Robbery"

"Tonight" - Jammy`s mix of Junior Delgado`s "Tonight" with the popular slang of the time "Jammys at the control tower" (This dub is also on the Brothers set)

Found some info on here, thanks.

Wow, I completely forgot I posted this thread and so long go, how time flies.

Thanks, all! GREAT help!

ONE MORE "Badda Music" / DEB question: anyone heard of a CD called "DEB Music Mojo" re-issued on Badda at the same time as all the rest? A good friend texted me from a local store and told me he has his hands on it, but does now know what it is and thought I may be interested (good friend, eh?)...

No catalog number or info yet, but RA massive - let me know if you have heard of this!

Thanks in advance!

AH just found out that this is UMOJA, he was reading it wrong! haha!

JUST found a copy of Mawamba Dub on CD on ebay, but the seller wants over $50.00 for it! He has multiple copies listed in the auction, but I don't think he'll be selling many for $50.00! Would love to add it to my collection of Badda Music, but can't quite justify the cost. Most of the other ones I have were less than $12.00 per CD...

It is available cheaper. Check your PM.
