so many to choose from! anything by lee perry,or augustus pablo is highly recommended-my favoriye track is "vibrate on".right now i'm listening to a tape i made of burning spear's "hail h.i.m.".each song is followed by the dub version from "living dub volume 2." when i'm driving,i'm listening to dub 95% of the time.there is something about the rhythm of the music ,and the "rhythm of the road" that i really enjoy. i can't explain it-try it and you'll know what i'm talking about. respect,love,peace and happiness-namaste' ras jah g

Yes , check out dangerous dub, a 1981 release, i hope thats old enough for you, cos its full of great, bass heavy dub with some marvellous riddims, King Tubby at his best. Greensleeves sell this one, so try it. Scientist has a lot of old 80s stuff which is good, check BEAM DOWN on SCIENTIST MEETS THE SPACE INVADERS album .Good luck
Thanks for that, friend. I'll be sure to check out Dangerous Dub. I have "Dub Landing" by Scientist which i like very much, and i think i have "Scientist Wins The World Cup" somewhere still, which is okay.
Also, i saw someone above mention "Reaction Dub" by the Revolutionaries. A friend of mine mentioned this too, so i'll be sure to check that one out.
If anyone else has any more suggestions, i will welcome them gladly! Thanks!
