This isn't listed on R-A, but does anyone have a copy of Black Ark In Dub? And if you do, what's it like? I assume it's bogus, but perhaps not...

Some photos:

Actually it is in RA.

I don't know if it is a bogus release or not, but it is a pretty strong set imo.

Yeah, sorry. I only realised it was on R-A after I'd posted this thread...

Not bogus as far as i know and is a must have imo

In my opinion this is bogus inna way...

For example in "Money", "Loving" and "Rasta Man" theres effects that are added later on (Check out the original dubs). For example "Money" and "Loving" has sound effects added which aren't made by Mikey Dread. So atleast these ones are fake.

The only song which I dare to claim to be Lee Perry prod and non-bogus is "Lion" which is the same as the one in "Words" 12" inch.

Mikey Dread ?

Mikey Dread wasn´t involved in the production.

They were from singles by various artists originally, Perry mixes them on the Black Ark In Dub LP.

Same as

Where did you get this information. I never heard of it being a 'Shaka' special?
