Both albums new to CDTwo of the finest dub LPs ever to see issueNumerous tracks new to CDToday, almost half a century since its emergence in Jamaica, dub still continues to exert a profound influence upon popular music globally, although it was the golden era of mid-to-late Seventies that undoubtedly produced its finest examples.During this time a host of sublime collections in the style saw issue in Jamaica and the UK, and of these, few have been more sought-after than the two LPs showcased on this CD.First released by Trojan Records in 1978 and 1979, respectively, both of these Linval Thompson-produced albums were cut at Jo Jo Hoo Kim’s famed Channel One studio, with musical backing supplied by celebrated session crew, the Revolutionaries, which featured within its ranks Jamaica’s illustrious riddim twins, Sly & Robbie.Given the array of talent that contributed to the 20 recordings presented here, it is hardly surprising that the musicianship, riddims and hard and heavy mixes are all of the highest order. And with neither of these essential long-players previously issued on CD, this 2-on-1 set is a dub-lovers dream come true. Dub has rarely sounded this good!

Dub Classic
The information claims this is Negrea Love Dub is on CD for the 1st time.....not strictly true as i have had it for years in the Evolution Of Dub box set series but this version is crystal clear whereas the box set version (sounds like it) has been transferred from vinyl and has an equally second rate photo copy for it's cover. Most likely that had been the only available source at the time but this new release is outstanding and coupled with the excellent Outlaw Dub. I am not usually keen on 2 on 1 CD releases but this is a major exception. 2 classics !!

New to cd ? I think not dr bird....
The review isn’t for the music which is excellent.... it’s for the false publicity information. These albums have been released before on cd on the excellent evolution of dub vol 3 the descent of version. Thank you.
