Hi


I have this du LP:

http://www.roots-archives.com/release/2903

the only info I found on the web is this page:

http://www.auctioneer.freeuk.com/items/twlp106.htm
The info I can add are:

The LP isn't strictly dub. More a mix of some instru & dub.
There are some very good instru cut as "Collie Rocker Dub" which is a killer tune with only bass, hand drums, very few cymbals and few voices on the background (as if the hand drummers were chatng at some points).
The dub aren't in the Tubby vibe with effects & co. They have a kinda Errol Thompson flavour with a work at the mixing desk consisting in puting in/out some part of the instru into the dub.


Side 1 is credited to Count Shelly (as prod) and side 2 to Keith Hudson. I spined it only twice so far but I realy like it.

Does anyone have info on this disc? Especialy the vocal counterpart of the tracks.


Thanx a lot in advance

Vocals !?

Thanx Lion. According what you say, I assume the tune were recorded to make ths dub set. I don't think there are vocal couterpart.

Found this dub set in London last week end and I was really happy cause I only hearded about it and never saw or listened to it before.

Yes, I wonder the same mghifi. Bothe LP seem to be scarce and there is very little infos on the web. What is quie sure is that bothe LPs are in the same vein, Shelly/Hudson instru/dub prods.

Yes Lion, a nice LP. I bought it in London last week end. One of the best finds of the week end for sure. Despite it is not a real dub LP I like it a lot. Tunes are well crafted and quite original.

Seems like there is a vocal cut of "Rocker Dub". You can clearly hear some singing in the background in the beginning of the song.

the nyabingi cut is a keith hudson track, called hunting from flesh of my skin lp. i had it long time ago but would love to get this track again heavy roots

Thanx peter Levi. Little by little the question will be solved.
