Liberated Dubplates

Post by Plastic Fantastic »

Greetings RA massive,
have noticed that some legendary dubplates are now finally available to those outside of sound system runnings - Kunte kinte and the renowned Sir Coxsone exclusive, From Creation, are two recent examples. Fatman's killer Jammy's dubplate cuts of Play Fool fe get Wise and Sun is Shining ( from the Prince Jammy/Crucial Bunny dub contest album) are further examples.
The release of dubplates to vinyl /CD represents the only chance i have of getting my hands on dubplate mixes and i would very much like to expand my collection in this direction.
What else is available to ordinary joe's like myself?
Thanks in advance for pointing me in the right direction.
Bless up.

There are clips of Jah Shaka on youtube playing dubplates to Dennis Brown "Slave Driver" and Black Uhuru "Rent Man". These dub mixes can be heard on the album "House of DEB" a cd/lp which is available now on the label DEB.
I don't know if this album was released back in the days (roots archives doesn't include it) but to me it sounds like a collection of Jah Shaka DEB dubs.

On the recent blood & fire Yabby You reissue there were also included some dubplate mixes I believe.

Ok Corral by U-Roy was released on a blank 7" back in 1970
