Another dub selection that just stands out out from the rest. This is an original dub collaboration from 1984. Ten tracks with Mad Professor taking #1-5 and Jah Shaka claiming #6-10. Really you have to listen to this album as a whole to truly appreciate the intentions of these two studio masters. Tracks #3 (Claps Like Thunder) & #4 (People of Yoruba) offer a good example of what this album is about. A little steel drum gives this album a caribbean taste with the Ariwa flair. Jah Shaka is known for pairing up with other artists such as Aswad and the Twinkle Brothers for our dubbing pleasure, but check out this YouTube video link of Mad Professor and Jah Shaka interviewing about dub music. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ab4EvispFhs It's only five minutes long and worth a look.
