FASTCD/LP011
PREVIOUSLY
UNRELEASED MATERIAL - ON ANY FORMAT !
The
discovery, by Linval Thompson, of a set of tapes previously believed
to have been lost, has resulted in the release of Phoenix Dub. Containing
mid to late seventies self produced dubs, the album features the
talents of the Revolutionaries and the Roots Radics. The tracks
were mixed at King Tubby's by Scientist, King Tubby or Prince Jammy.
Genuinely unreleased
material of this quality hardly ever surfaces, even in the somewhat
chaotic world of reggae.
David Katz (biographer
of Lee Perry) has written extensive sleeve notes, which feature
an interview with Linval. The music itself is classic seventies
Dub reggae. Mastered, of course, from the original tapes.
