loopaz, yeah! definitely into dubby stuffs lately... if anybody can point me in the direction of ACTUAL album titles that they think are worth checkin' out, please tell me! off list if ya think that's the way to go... my searches have led me to just a few records...starting slow and don't want to experiment with my money in that genre...it's chock full of artists i don't know anything about. it's like if you were a newbie to Jazz, had some inkling of the sound you liked and didn't have anybody to resource for information...where would you start? whew... that's me with dub for the last year. itchin' to listen/buy da really good stuff and skip some of the crap. recent purchases... King Tubby and Errol Thompson - The Black Foundation in DUB....fantastic, i LOVE this record. King Tubby meets uptown Rockers - considered a classic, from what i've heard. like this one very much, too! also bought a Lee Perry album, forgot the title...him playing with a couple o' white guys... crappy, imho. anybody have suggestions? i'm more familiar with the new school dub stuffs, ala kruder/dorfmeister, thievery, etc... so any help with old school jamaican stuff would be tops! thanks in advance, rich >well i gotta coupla his rekkids and i dont know much 'bout the guy-but i >think his production techniques are all analog and he is spewin about his >tape echoplex for them there dubby thangs he does so goood good good goo >go >g... >s > >> Don't know how many old school dub fans there are out there, but >here's the >> King of Dub talking about his 'plex. >> http://www.upsetter.net/scratch/words/outer05.html >> Grand Royal: [Asks about the equipment & techniques Perry used at the >Black >> Ark] >> Scratch: I have special ears and special help.
