King Tubby - The Roots Of Dub

Post by Musitronics »

Seems I've just been ripped off again record buying, it's not a great amount of money I only lost a tenner but perhaps someone here can help me figure what's going on here .

The LP King Tubby - The Roots Of Dub

http://www.discogs.com/King-Tubby-The-R ... ter/163206

Cant find it listed here in the archives.

It's advertised as featuring a track called "The Immortal Dub" it's even listed on the Discogs page with a video showing the Album cover and the track I want, but the LP arrived today and there is no such track on there, there is a track called immortal Dub but it's not the correct track.

It should be http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0chwcuiOrSM (as on the CD and other Re-issues)

Any clues?

Immortal Dub is for sure on "KING TUBBY THE DUB MASTER PRESENTS
THE ROOTS OF DUB and DUB FROM THE ROOTS" CD on MollSelekta.

Right, so the track listed on the Roots of Dub LP (Vinyl LP) is either an incorrect listing or a different track with the same title?

I've noticed the copies that are currently in the shops are on the Jamaican Recordings label.
Maybe the *problem* is with that version of the reissue.

Yeah, that's the copy I have, from the link you posted it seems the track is correct on the CD, but it doesn't appear on the Record even under a different track name.

Dread locks Dub isn't on there either, what a con!! They are both listed on the LP cover and on the Label itself but they don't appear on the record. . . . I wonder which tracks they have been replaced with?

Why don`t you buy the CD boxset "Evolution of Dub Vol 1"

You get the correct album with the tracks you are after plus another 3 great dub albums for a bargain price.

Sound quality is also pretty damn good too.

I will second Rootsman's suggestion the Evolution set is really well done sound quality is great and like he said you get four super Dub albums for not that great a price.

I haven't bought a cd for years as I'm trying to build up my Vinyl collection, but that does sound good.

Thanks guy's ;)
