Of course, when u hear this 12" any good reggae listener can clearly identify the strong presence of tubby's influence on Jammy's works, specially on the dub side....
I guess the "KING" title posession has proved very harmful to him... lol

this king jammy business..it appears to coincide with the change in jammy to dancehall and screaming vocal productions, away from the dub he was good at before

I have several Jammy chunes, pre-digital, and I reckon he's in the charts as far as producers go. He ain't no King Tubby and he's not a Lee Perry either. But in his own way, he did a good job and I certainly enjoy spinning his tunes.
If he wants to call himself KIng, then that's up to him. But for me, anyone is a mere pretender to the Real King's crown. I'm talking about King Tubby of course.
