There is always lovely albums produced by Sly and Robbie like Black Uhuru's "Dub" or even the mega-awesome
Sly and Robbie Meet Mad Professor. Also the classics: Lee "Scratch" Perry King Tubby |

Check out Easy Star All Stars' Dubside Of The Moon and Radiodread.
Friends of mine have recommended to me Jah Wobble, but look for some of his earlier records |

Just did a wiki for Yabby You and given how many releases he has and has worked with Lee 'Scratch' Perry and King Tubby et al I can't believe I have never heard of him. Cheers for that! I'll investigate

I'm a huge fan of Dub but I don't know or have anywhere near enough as I want.
Got and heard tons of Big Youth, U-Roy, Scientist, Mad Professor. Need your help to find more.
(and remember this is not a thread about your common or garden reggae. I'm only interested in Dub. So if it doesn't have:
vomit-inducing monster bass
bizarre random/spacey electronic beeps
violent abuse of echo chambers
an apartment shaking rhythm
disorientating phasing/panning
speaker-to-speaker bass with a total disregard for Dolby
and no idea of the concept of 'production values'
then I probably won't be interested)
Recommendations please!
