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!

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

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

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
