your desert island dub

[dogen]

you'll be marooned on a tropical island for many years and you're only allowed to bring three tracks of dub reggae with you. which do you bring?

impossible to answer? maybe. but if you don't answer you don't get to bring any music! so make your choices. of course you can give honorable mentions, and remember to share your thoughts about others' picks.

**desert island picks**

• *Throne of Blood* by Prince Jammy (off Kamikaze Dub)
• *Old School Dub* by Mad Professor/Joe Ariwa/U-Roy (off Old School Dubs)
• *Upfull Living* by Augustus Pablo (off East of the River Nile)


**honorable mentions**

• *Shine Eye Dub* by Barrington Levy/Roots Radics (of the Trojan Dub Rarities compilation. I don't know who dubbed it! does anyone know?)

well, I have to stop somewhere. it was harder than I thought. and there's no way I mean to say that any of the honorable mentions are less raw than the desert island picks. but rules are rules.

what do you think?
