Candy - Glory To The king |
| Heartical
and Conscious lyrics from Rastaman Icho
Candy, as he sings over JAH Shaka's
computerized riddims that were so
influential in what we now know as UK DUB. |

| jah
Shaka - Africa drum beats |
| The
title of this intense DUB album doesn't make
too much of a mystery of it's central theme:
Heavy DUBS with lots of creative use of the
Reggae Rhythm. |

ANN - A SLICE OF ENGLISH TOAST |
| With
the humor that typifies so many Mad
Professor releases, this 1982 produced album
is really more than a slice of toast. For
toasting is "Reggae Rapping"... |
|

 |
| MAX
ROMEO - OUR RIGHTS |
| Beautiful
singing, conscious topics and some very
catchy music form the main ingredients of
this document from this legendary Jamaican
Reggae and JAH Shaka. |
|
|
 |
| MAX
ROMEO - FARI, CAPTAIN OF MY SHIP |
| This
1980's album by Max Romeo was produced by
JAH Shaka, a true master of making
computerized riddims appealing to an
audience with prejudice against "music
from the box". |

| SLY
& ROBBIE - 60'S+70'S+80'S=TAXI |
| Is
it a formula? Probably it is. Sly and Robbie
have playing the drum and bass on too many
albums to mention, for a truly long time,
even continually innovating the rhythms.
Here's just a small sampler... |

|
 |
| Horace
Andy - livin' it up |
| Horace
Andy sings some of his classics and other
tunes, with the Riddim Twins on the
foundation. The result is a surprisingly fresh,
original form of contemporary Roots
Music |
|
|
 |
| OWEN
URIAH - HEART OF URIAH |
| He
may be a black belt Karate expert (which he
is), his singing shows his heart which is
driving him to sing songs of praises for his
Saviour on some really nice and relaxed
Reggae Music. |

| ANTHONY
JOHNSON - GUNSHOT (MAXI SINGLE) |
| Aaaaaah......
Crucial early Rub a Dub Music from the Roots
Radics skillfully mixed and voiced, even an
extended version. |
|

| (RANKING)
TOYAN - GHETTO MAN SKANK |
| Sure,
toasting started in the 1960's. But when Rub
a Dub came into existence the art of
rhythmically chanting over drum and bass
driven riddims went into brand new
dimensions. Let Toyan convince you! |
