Dub Album
Collection
1970s/80s
Vinyl Dub Reggae LPs
All Original Vinyl Issues
These dub albums form part of my collection and were bought new in the 1970s/ 80s, and they are all original issues. All of the discs have had a fair amount of play (because they're all brilliant!) so there's the expected surface marks on the vinyl and wear and tear to the sleeves. I don't have a hi-fi at the moment so can't play them through, but don't remember there being any major problems such as skips or jumps. There may be a bit of unwanted noise here and there but all of the records should play well. If there are any problems I always offer a full refund on my vinyl sales. Glad to say that I've never had to do that. So please buy with confidence and grab yourself some great dub LPs.

I was leafing through the dub vinyl at Virgin back in the early 70s/80s when a Jamaican lad standing next to me suggested I get this record. And so I did, and wasn't disappointed. It's a pretty typical dub album of its time, with perhaps side 1 being a little stronger than side 2. It's easy listening with no major surprises but with a fair variety to the tracks. Overall a solid and playable dub album. Original Jamaican issue, probably 1980.

This one isn't always so easy listening. Very original dub album quite afar from the Joe Gibbs/ King Tubby style of musicality on some tracks. Starts off weird and heavy and continues to be strange, with all sorts of odd noises penetrating the 'normal' run of things. There are some good tunes on the album, but the oddness of some of the arrangements and the unique electronic noises is what strikes you at first, though it does settle down a bit later when you get to some great tunes done with lots of style. Overall a mixture of the unusual and the very well done.

Basically a martial arts themed dub concept album. Nice tunes, smooth production, original instrumentation and does what it says on the label. I love this album and highly recommend it. There's no major surprises - the album follows through on the promise of the sleeve and delivers exactly what you would expect, which is top class dub with an oriental feel to it.

Fresh sounding, upbeat and highly listenable, this two part dub album delivers nice tunes and mixes with some interesting production from both players. I prefer Jammy but both sides are good.

Important Update
I was putting the records away when I noticed that the Prince Far-I sleeve has become unglued. I won't fix it myself and will leave it up to the winning bidder to do this.
The discs will need a clean before playing and they will come up nice and shiny. Surface marks are minimal so condition will probably be better than very good once cleaned.
