This is a pure dub album produced by Earl Morgan (of the Heptones) and sporting the talents of Prince Jammy, Lee Perry, and Scientist as the mixing and recording engineers ; a great collaboration. Not flashy or over technical, this is pure roots dub. Most of these tunes you'll find familiar. My copy of this album is a CD released by the Auralux label in 2007, the original release was on vinyl by Tele-Tech back in 1982. Only 10 tracks on this one but all are solid. My favorites on this one are #1 (Bo-Yarka Dub), #3 (Vibration Rock), and #7 (Party Time Dub). The booklet that comes with the CD is a nice addition, with very in depth notes on the history of Earl Morgan and the the origin of the different tracks on this album. The booklet notes were provided by David Katz and are about 5 pages of nicely written reggae history.
