the dub versions to most of these tunes have been re-released (free for all dub..)last year...

funny thing is that there are several totally different versions from tunes from this dub album on early Aires en wackies singles...

for example: baba leslie - 217 bronxwood (Aires LB 110) is a wicked horns cut to the tune 'space age'
from Genesis to Revelation here I come ,here I come to dub the nation.

so I think someone should re-release the early Aires, rawse, senrab, city line and other 7es from the wackies stable..

these are all 7" killers:
Jah I Maz - freedom is a must.
John Clarke - recession ( Killer dub version )
Joe Axumite - no equal rights in babylon
Wayne Jarrett - come lets go.
azul (Clive Hunt? ) - Black Rose.

12" footprint - chosen brothers & bullwackies all stars - child of slave..
from Genesis to Revelation here I come ,here I come to dub the nation.

Now that sounds like a treat - I have read (on here somewhere I think) that a lot of the Wackies and related 7"s are killers, and I just picked up a repress copy of 'Free For All' this year and I'm liking it a lot!

Would like to see a couple of Lee Perry's early productions remastered from the original tapes and pressed up on decent quality 7"s - mostly because the copies I have are on poor quality CDs!

It's my imaginary record label, I can do what I want...

on the first 7" we have:
A) Classics 'Civilisation'
and
B) Neville Grant 'Sick And Tired'

and on the second:
A) Upsetters 'Tight Spot'
and
B) Upsetters 'Waap You Waa'
