[oink]

Lets see... the first 5 that comes to mind:

Sylford Walker - Burn Babylon (the Joe Gibbs version followed by dub) - you HAVE to check this one
Prince Douglas' dub version of "Every Tounge Shall Tell" - well the entire album is wicked heavy Wackie's stuff.
Noel Ellis' self titled album
Wayne Jarrett & Silver Fox - Saturday Night Jamboree (Greensleeves 12")
Ranking Joe's Disco Skate LP on Copasetic - pure rub-a-dub goodness.

I love it when I hear a new tune that just sound PERFECT.. Hard to describe but the feeling is great. It depends on my mood and the setting. When it all comes together and I hear a good tune I have to crank the volume and rewind a few times.

[KEVD]

Bright Soul - Bunny Wailer
Eden Out Deh - Black Uhuru
Bredda Gravalicious - Wailing Souls
Natural Mystic - Bob Marley & the Wailers
Misty In Roots Live at the Counter Eurovision

Sorry! I chose a whole album, BUT it was my first ever (of many) Reggae albums, so very special.
Natural Mystic may not be on every ones Wailers play list, but imagine, it's track 1 on the first album from Bob that I ever heard as a youth. And BAM! there was no going back! I wore out that first copy of Exodus!
The others are tracks I still play (among others) over and over.

There's some great lists on here, keep them coming!
