Damn, now I have to ask a question: Does anybody out there have a copy of Sugar Minott meets the people in Dub, I think that is the title, heard it on KKUP Cupertino years ago, dub of Love Jah Forever with melodica and some crazy voices "I am the Exterminator" been looking for this forever.

never heard it jah chupa

slum dub by gregory isaacs is an astonishingly great disc..available on trojan now..1978 release.

i am not very impressed with all this funky dub/new wave/acid trip type dub. i always saw zion train as hippies, and hippies always pollute reggae, turning it into a pink floyd with a bassline. is this the case with zion train?

Hmm, Sean.... maybe u are right, in a way.
Zion Train is not the "old-school" dub,
more exprimental, more ambient-fusion-chillout-dub(!!??)
Haha, I dunno......
Anyway... I like their albums,
When Im in that chill-out mood!:)

thanks funky fred.you know theres lots of experimental dub about , check out the dubhead albums 1 to 4 or more, somes ok, somes crap .too much ambient dub does nothing for me i guess.

for sheer roots originality, for me its still gotta be eastman dub by augustus pablo...a masterpiece of dub.please check out the cd with tetrack album called lets get started, man its super stuff.
