brotherhood of dub


Coming from the 2006 Auralux issue of "Barrington Levy In Dub (The Lost Mixes From King Tubby's Studio)"; itself a 'lost' counterpart to the 1980 Greensleeves UK release, "The Big Showdown", featuring five mixes by Jah Thomas.

The album was simultaneously issued on The Jah Guidance label in Jamaica as "

Hats off to NØ.

  3. Thanks, Big Ed.

    Flabba Holt is the boss.

    Less than 3 hours to go here, and sounding more like a Johnny Cash song every second.

    Happy New Year as it enfolds.
