Jah Lloyd questions

Post by Pots n Pans »

I'm a big fan of 'Herbs Of Dub' by Jah Lloyd - it was the one of the first dub albums I bought and I listened to it an awful lot, driving a few non-reggae inclined friends potty. Good times! :)

I've been thinking about picking up some of the other dub albums he's been involved in, which so far I've found out include:                       

'Dread Lion Dub'
'Goldmine Dub'
'30 Pieces Of Dub'

Any of these worth picking up? And was there any other dub albums Mr Lloyd lent a hand to?

30 Pieces of Dub and Goldmine Dub are both very solid albums, definitely recommended. I've never listened to Dread Lion Dub so I can't comment on that one.

I have a spare copy of the quite rare 30 Pieces of Dub and possibly also Goldmine Dub in my sale box.

:)

Both of these and the equally rare Dread Lion Dub are very good LPs indeed, although quite different in sound!

30 Pieces of Dub really does it for me, I can just keep flipping this killa LP all night.

Hello there!

30 Pieces Of Dub - it's the one I don't know, must search for it (oh no, another album on my wish-list;)

Goldmine dub is 6/6 points - great one, superb dub!!!
Dread Lion Dub - 5/6 - very solid set...

I'd give "Goldmine Dub" 9/10 as I find "Goldmine" (on the "Money In My Pocket" riddim) totally unlistenable! :)

Definitely worth checking out the vocal cut to "Goldmine Dub" as well;

Speaking of Jah Lloyd, does anyone remmber the TV show he was on back in the early 90's? it was on some kind of travel show, maybe Rough Guide to Jamaica, one of those Magenta Divine style shows, been trying to find the show for years after loosing my vhs copy.
