Ended up buying the two albums posted here. Excellent performances and recording quality.
Yes their discography is absolutely recommended…

Slight departure from the Dub fest.

The book (same title and “author”) is excellant as well, Allison and Shelby had a difficult upbringing.

Willie Nile - Streets of New York
This and Dion’s Bronx in Blue are probably the best two Americana albums of the 21st century. Great album.

RJ Thompson . Loving this and his previous album too. On Qobuz, lovely SQ.
And supporting a local Essex mate of mine with his music by purchasing from Bandcamp, we have This Circus Life - again, nice tunes well written.

The Skatalites are not a band one would normally associate with Dub.
However in 1975 the core original members reformed and recorded a number of sessions at various studios, Studio One, Aquarius, Joe Gibbs and Lee Scratch Perry’s Black Ark.
The session tapes were taken to King Tubby’s who mixed the Dubs.
These languished in obscurity until 25 years later when the now defunct Motion Records reissue label unearthed them and released 3 LP/CD volumes.
Heroes Of Reggae In Dub
The Legendary Skatalites In Dub
Herb Dub Collie Dub
Very highly recommended and worth looking out for
Motion later put out a CD compiled from the above, it’s available to stream on Tidal
Superior sound on the vinyl though

Another nice radio station playing in 16/44.1 flac.
Listened for two hours plus. Great music and stable as a rock. Is this the future of radio?
