Midnight Rock at Channel One : Barry Brown showcase with Jah Thomas & Scientist @ King Tubby's

This album is a definite treat for all Barry Brown aficionados. It features adaptations and dub versions of some classic Barry Brown material from 1979 to 1981. With 12 tracks total, my favorites on this one are: #1 (Movements of Jah), #2 (Movements in Dub), and #5 (Girlfriend). Jah Thomas chants an intro on "Girlfriend" and a couple of other tracks which makes this disc almost like a re-mix compilation. Scientist has put in work on the dub tracks that you'll find alternating with their vocal counterpart a la Barry Brown. This CD is from the Abraham label in Canada and lists Jah Thomas as the producer. This is a well put together set for the reggae fans seeking-out alternate versions of their favorite songs. Enjoy !!!
