I have been linking people to this list like crazy lately, but here we go again...

[Top 100 JA Albums](http://www.bloodandfire.co.uk/db/viewto ... 100+albums)

Much respect to Zapatoo the Tiger for compiling this one! Well crucial! The list covers roots, dub, rocksteady and ska pretty well, but not too much post 1985 material.

Leggo Dub

I've just listened to it and, for me, it stands apart from just about any other reggae record I've ever heard. It's unique.

I love it so much I have five issues of it, and am still looking for a few more - - I don't have the one with the track listing and the baseball boot cover anymore

It's been re-issued by the Hot Pot label.

Here's the original:

Pick a Dub. For me it's the record that sucked me into reggae and dub, before that i only knew the hitsingles of Bob Marley. I bought a re-issue on vinyl last year, and a couple of months ago i bought one on blue vinyl. Very proud of that...

I have that issue on Blue Vinyl also! And yes, it is a very very good LP.
