I just recently came across this album and was curious to what would a Inner Circle dub album sound like.Some people said that it`s amazing what a rootsy feel it has wich is surprising for there normally known for there commercial style.Is this album worth getting, what`s your oppinion on this record.


Respect and guidance

Rasta.

I personally think it's fantastic albums on that set. The earlier Inner Circle (with Jacob Miller fronting the group) was very different from the Bad Boys-IC most people tend to hear first.

Buy it and enjoy it!

I totally agree.Two excellent dub albums in one.

I have both albums killers .

I also agree both are great dub albums, not the greatest but definately worth getting.

nice packaging...mediocre music

Every dub album by Fatman Riddim Section (aka Inner Circle) except for one ('Touter' that is) is a classic dub recording of the highest degree.

go and try to get them.
The Blood & Fire release is the only one that is quite easy to get, all others are going for horrible price (ebay or else).

Hence the glaring gap in my collection here!

I have a pretty rough version of Heavyweight Dub and despite this the music is so very good indeed that I have no trouble getting pleasure from playing it.

I did get a really nice copy of Israel Tafari recently (from Tom Funcke who advertises his stuff in the Buy/Sell/Trade section sometimes). I paid a lot for it but it was well worth it as it is a killa.

Hi Leggo,
just to give you extra-pleasure for your money, 'Israel Tafari' is the better dub of Israel Vibration's 'Same Song' album. The other,'Same Song Dub', is rare too, but has the weaker mix on it.

I like the dub, Bellyman, very much. But I have struggled to get into the vocal version which seems a bit weak.
