I'm a long time fan of dub but lately im running out of ideas as to lps/cds to look for/buy.I dont own every dub album ever made by any means, however i do think I have a fairly good collection of "classic" lps. I also have lots of singles which in many cases i bought for the dub side but find with cd collections particularly there is so much repetition of tracks(Trojan are major culprits, I sometimes despair when i read the track list to see the same artists/songs as on other collections).
Could roots archivers recommend some more obscure maybe underrated lps to search for?
love up

Re: new inspirational sounds
It is difficult to recommend something when I don't know what you've heard but these are some rather obscure albums I've listened to a lot lately and I think are great.
**Fatman Riddim Section - Tribulation Dub** (Top Ranking) -- I love how Fatman Riddim Section here really tap in to that sparse and hard mixdown dancehall style that came to prominence just before the digital era.
**Rass-es - Harder Na Rass** (Warrior Records) -- Just some beautiful and subtle mixed dubs by Jammy.
**Revolutionaries - Dub Out Her Blouse & Skirt Vol. 1** (Germain/Rub-A-Dub) -- Brilliant rockers rhythms. Nuff said. By the way. Am I wrong in saying that the missing pt. 2 really was Sentimental Mood Dub?
**Roots Radics - Roots Dub Style** (Scorpio) -- Steppers delight with False Rasta and other roots staples.
**Soferno B in Dub 1980 Style** (Soferno B) -- Some TOUGH rockers rhythms on this one.
**Revelation - Variation On A Theme** (Burning Sounds LP) -- Beautiful english lovers rock dub.
**Errol Brown - Dubb Everlasting** (High Note) -- This one is the same album as Bag-A-Wire Dub (Klik) or Marcus Garvey Dub (Roots International). GREAT!
**Sir Lloydie Coxsone - Presenting the Coxsone Affair** (Tribesman LP) -- Mid 70's rockers delight! Has an incredible dub of Mighty Diamonds Jailhouse.
