Magnificent dub album out originally on the Senrab label in
1976, when Lloyd Barnes' spars at the desk were Prince
Douglas and Jah Upton, in the first months of the White
Plains Road headquarters, and indeed as Upton -
disheartened by the gang warfare that had crossed the path
of the Bullwackies Disco sound - crifted away.
The selection commemorates a series of brilliant sevens and
twelves on labels like City Line and Wackies, and sister
labels like Upton, Versatile, and Munchie Jackson's Earth
imprint. Core rhythm tracks from Jamaica - Treasure Isle
mostly, and then mixed by Tubby - had been worked over at
the Sounds Unlimited studio on E 24th Street in Manhattan.
There are few traces of singers, though: the Sylvester
Brothers are singled out by the label artwork here.
Baba Leslie's Black Horns - next piece to Wayne Jarrett's
African Woman - is spun out of the opening track. The Love
Joys are like genies in the stunning twin mixes of Disco
Reggae. The track Dub Unlimited is John Clarke's Pollution
(Unlimited Dub dubs singjay coverage of the Ali-Frazier
Thriller In Manilla); Bullwackies Revenge is a version of
the Chin Chow rhythm, a tribute to the restaurant next
door; the Chosen Brothers' Talk To The Father is
represented, and Andrew McCalla's Home By The Sea...
But it would be wrong to bog the album down in these
details - an all-time great dub album.
