Dub for Hell A Go Pop?

Post by david roots »

Is there any album or any dub cuts to Cultural Roots Hell A Go Pop? Or to the song Every Man Has A Right?

The 12" is repressed on Volcano (VJ04) and is also available on the CD-release of Hell A Go Pop on the Greensleeves label. The track is an extended mix (hence the vocal is followed by an instrumental / dub part). I don't know if a pure dub is (or was) available.

Ok. I'm looking for the dub to the track "Every Man Has A Right". But I guess that I need the 12" for that. But I do hope that there is a dub out there.

How about "Thiefs, liars & criminals" or "Execute"? Anyone knows whether dub cuts exist?

Those two tunes being the high points of the set as far as I am concerned. Way ruffer than the title track for sure!

theives liars and criminals is about my #1 track on that set but i like pretty much everything on it. i dont think tl&c ever came out in any other form that whats on the lp.

that lp was one of the greensleeves great lost treasures if you ask me and i was overjoyed to see it reissued. rod taylor where is your love mankind and wayne jarretts chip in would also be in that catagory to me. little noticed classics from the golden age of reggae or at least dancehall reggae.

yeah i know linval well enough to talk to him a bit and i was involved in putting out that early years release and esp the video (what a mess that was...ask me about it in email and i will tell you a good story). anyway evidently junjos widow turned things over to linval and he has been putting out some of his productions on his own label. i realize a lot of it hasnt been issued on other labels but much has, jah guidance label for one, volcano for another, back at time of original release. linval is a great guy but he is also a businessman, and if he can get stuff pressed cheap then he does it. carter van pelt does a good job of keeping him on track for non-ja releases but the ja stuff usually is pretty poor pressing quality. we have a few LPs of his rarer material, following on in the vein mined by early years, that may see the light of day soon on well pressed quality vinyl.

i also collect greensleeves discos, at one time it was my challenge to gather up all of the first 200 or so and i got a good ways toward that but then started letting some off after transferring them to cdr. to me GS discos defined early reggae dancehall in terms of selection and quality and they generally sound great as well.
