I've been getting into Cultural Roots for a while now, what are all your top tunes from the band?

Best tracks:
Mr. Bossman.
Devil-Ites.
Drift Away From Evil.
Which were repressed on 7"s a few times, most recent ones on Revolutionary Sounds label last year. The LP is quite rare and can sell for quite a bit. An LP thats not been re-issued. All the tracks are good on a very good LP.

Sound samples for the Revolutionary Soubds label of Drift Away From Evil & Mr. Bossman. Blakamix shop at.

All the Cultural roots albums are good and worth having.

But funnily enough my favorite happens to be this one

"Wisdom" has a wicked bassline and nice harmonies

"Jah No Partial" is a beautiful roots tune

"Bus Dem Shut" a wicked rubadub rendition of the Wailers classic

"Drift Away From Evil" has a good dub

"Mr Bossman" has a tuff bassline

"Inna Different Style" nice & sweet rubadub music

this album is absolutely crucial. all songs are killer! a definite Junjo-Radics classic of the early dancehall period.

Where could one find the corresponding dubs to "Hell A Go Pop"? Does a dub album exist?

Especially "Thief, Liars & Criminals" along with "Execute" are truly roots with quality!
