Pick A Dub / Keith Hudson (it was the first one i bought)
A New Chapter In Dub / Aswad
Rids The World of Vampires / Scientist
The Wailing Souls at Channel One / The Wailing Souls (not strictly a dub album, but there's dubs to every song)
Blazing Horns In Dub / Dean Frazer
African Anthem Dubwise / Mikey Dread
Doe de dub / Doe Maar (dutch pop reggae band)
In Fine Style / Augustus Pablo

of course two classics which should be in every serious dub collection:

"Dub from the roots"
"The roots of dub"

Both mixed by the great King Tubby.

Try to find the excellent re-release of both lps on Moll Selekta if you can.

i noticed nobody put aswad new chapter in dub,that;s certainly crucial.

on another note,has anyone listened to king tubby meets afrcian brothers? i want to check that out.

New Chapter = Excellent (Check out the Heartical and BDF Dub Fire Showcase.)
KTMAB = Weak. Don't bother.
