A super heavyweight, twenty-one dub tribute to the almighty King Tubbys
and the criminally under-released talent Carlton Patterson. Focussed
entirely on Carlton Patterson's highly collectable Black & White imprint
ands it dub output, this beautifully concieved release makes available
some of the central Tubbys mixes of the seventies, and can boast fifteen
tracks never before reissued on cd or lp. Patterson's production, when
run through loud sound systems, plays back so beautifully to this day -
a perfectly weighted, counterbalanced treat of rhythm and melody, with
the futuristic developments of prime period moist dub, heavy in its
attendant presence. Given his vocal and deejay hit records, its nearly
inexplicable that Carlton Patterson isn't as well known as contemporary
Tubbys collaborators like Bunny Lee, Niney, Yabby You, Glen Brown,
Winston Riley ... Doubly surprising when you realise that the a sides to
these dangerous dubs numbered the best vocalists and dj's of the period
- Studio One veteran Larry Marshall, Horace Andy, Barrington Levy, Sugar
Minott, Barry Brown, Trinity, Dillinger, I Roy, Eek-A-Mouse. Ansell
Collins, Sly Dunbar and Lloyd Parkes formed the cornerstone of this ever
vital band sound. Steve Barrow from Blood & Fire has put together an
excellent collection, with great interviews, reminiscences and detail,
which will go a long way to restoring Carlton Patterson's supreme single
sides to their rightful position in any canon of great roots reggae
music. Some of this reviewer's all time favourite dubs here - totally
recommended. So, operator - jus' let off, seen?
