King Tubby's Classics The Lost Midnight Rock Dubs

[j j]

Volumes 1-2-3.

Anybody picked these up? On the Roots label which i think is connected to Acid Jazz label.
Are they really lost or just retitled?

thanks

I'd like to know too. I have one of them, it sounds like quite late dub, each track has a really annoying spoken intro by that bloke who did crap vocal intros at tubby's I forget his name I know I've read it somewhere. I put the songs in some recording software and cut the intros off as they spoilt the vibe

I notice that juno records calls one of these albums 'lost". Which makes you wonder

I thought that was Jah Thomas himself doing the intro's?

Or do you mean "Fuzzy Jones" who did all the 'soundclash-style' intro's at Tubby's?
I love his intro's, they are very funny, not crap at all to me...

I don't think it was Jah Thomas so it must have been "Fuzzy"

I like dub for relaxing and his shouting rubbish spoils the chilled vibe for me, plus they sound very dated now, whilst the dub music doesn't sound dated at all

Anyone able to provide a list of the original tracks as in which Jah Thomas artists recorded them. I can identify the odd vocalist that appear in the odd dub but a list of originals would be useful. NOT a list of the original rhythms.
Thanks
