I have this LP, Cancer, credited to I Roy because he produced, arranged and directed it, although he has no voice over on it at all.
I think it's a particularly fine bit of late 70s Revolutionaries Dub work. And yet it is hardly ever mentioned by people when discussing their favourite dub stuff.
It has a rockin riddim throughout, with great percussion, superb guitar work, a dread keyboard sound and some fine brass instrumentation too.
Am I alone in thinking this LP is one of the best of the era?
