[rootsnatty]

hello to all ya rastas..
me like to run a pole.. what is your favorite horns reggae album.. it could be just trumpet or trombone or all the horn instruments together..

my choice is without a doubt..
Musical Bones - Vin gordon and the upsetters (perry production)

after that its bobby ellis and the professionals - Meet the Revolutionaries

Anything Agrovators, Tommy McCook etc is always great.

Or on an earlier tip the Skatalites.

This LP is a sensation:

I love Rico's cut of "Take Five" on Island 12" - especially the way it flows into the spacey dub.

"Cloak and Dagger" ~ Lee Perry, Tommy McCook

"Horn Dub" ~ Tommy McCook ("I'll never fall in love" - Winston Heywood)

Check Blazing Horns in dub. Sweet African Dub (version of Earth & Stone's "Sweet Africa" is just majestic.)
