I would second Meets the Space Invaders as well, with "Introducing Scientist... the Best Dub Album in the World" as a close second (although it only lasts about half an hour all told!)

I always used to think Invaders was better than World Cup. But lately I've decided not. The World Cup shades it for me now. Thanks here to MightyZ who prompted me to give World Cup a few more listens when we discussed this very subject a while back.

....Space Invaders for me.

I really like the track Dematerialize....very futuristic sounding!

my top 3 would be

1. Space Invaders
2. Vampires
3. Dub Landing vol 1

Buy all of his albums on Greensleeves. Seriously they are all killer and you will not regret it. You can't settle for one.

I agree absolutely with Jah Glu here. Don't miss any LP of that series. No way, no excuse.

I also agree with Alan, Dematerialise is an all-time great 80s dub track.

Please, don't forget these:
[cover=814,949]
[cover=1086,1250]
[cover=2307,2665]
[cover=1169,1345]

Are all superb!

too often overlooked and brilliant.

If you ever have the chance to put your hands on the original Jah Guidance releases of all the Greensleeves stuff then do it. You can 'feel' the difference in the mix, not mastered for western ears, the pure stuff. Best example imo is 'Scientist in Dub Vol.1'

(it's not in the RA-database), the superior counterpart to 'Space Invaders'.

I really like this one too
It has great piano (GLADY ANDERSON) dubs
then 5 extra tracks frome the RADICFACTION album
which have a different sound and are longer

I have a couple of the Jah Guidance / Scientist LPs.

Well worth getting.

But usually pretty rough pressings compared to the immaculate Greensleeves offerings.
