Many albums by Macka B

Thanks Paddy! I have dub me crazy pt. 3 african connection.

I have both of these and they are ok to good very different sound from the Jamaican sound, and on the plus side they can usually be got cheap

[cover=2598,2995]
[cover=1336,1536]

This is a dub version of one of Lacksley Castell's albums and has a much more Jamaican sound and the dubbing is great

[cover=1880,2219]

And I totally love this release:

Peter Culture's vocals are amazing and the album is super spaced out, great dubs from Mad Prof, but again not very Jamaican sounding

Sorry if I sound snobby saying about his UK sound, but I generally prefer a more traditional Jamaican sound, but that doesn't mean these aren't good releases, its just my personal preference

Thanks a lot Congo!

anthology called "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad Professor" is a good start

THANKS!
