Sean,
Mad Professor is good if you like 80s dub and if you grew up listening to the stuff and are open to listening and not swayed easily by purists!

The cut off for me is the Black Liberation series early 90s.
Personally, Dub Me Crazy 1 and his work with Pato Banton, Ranking Ann, Robotiks, are fine, again if you have no biases against 80s digital reggae (with musicians that is).

Some classic riddims that were recycled on many Ariwa releases; good if you are DJ or complier. He is great to see live; playing his best known work and throwing insome trendy stuff for good measure (i.e., jungle...this was in the mid-90s).

agreed..mad professor has done some great stuff and is ace live..ive seen the guy

as one poster asked me to do, i listened again to track 2 on king tubbys vs channel one on rhino..good riddim ruined by a godawful vocal intro..album verdict..appalling..and worse every time i listen...anyone want it?its crap//.....

Hi Sean

I was the one who asked you to do that. I only have it on vinyl so would love to have it on CD as well. Plus of course I'll be able to see how the vinyl and CD compare. Maybe the CD is a shocker or maybe I just have poor taste. At least I'll know for sure then!

where do i post it to 6anbatte?honest..you can have it for free..regards,,,sean

Hi Sean

Thank you. Much appreciated. I'll send info to your PM.

i feel that lee perry spoils an awful lot of good riddim dub with his awful voice and imbecilic chants...never have i heard such an uncool voice that invariably ruins any dub its attached to,,as a vocalist hes the pits

I disagree. "Dr Dick" is a great tune.

K.

i think that we will agree to disagree on that one.i think its ruined by perry. but its all a matter of opinion anyway and thats what its all about..regards sean
