Any Reggae finds who can help me out?

  1. So I found this song I totally dig! As irony would have it, none of their other stuff sounds anything like it. So, I am seeking the help of some fellow Reggae fans to suggest some stuff similar to this.

    (Note: I know this isn't traditional reggae, more along the lines of a Dub remix)

    This is basically the only song with vocals, and the vocals are my favorite part. Any and all suggestions are welcome.

    Also I'm new here, figure I might as well say hey as well!
     
  2. The couple biggest names in dub are King Tubby, Lee "Scratch" Perry, and sometimes Augustus Pablo is included. They all put out such tremendous volumes of work that I'll simply post a few favorites of mine. Also, welcome to GC and the Music Hall.

    For more dub, and traditional (roots) reggae, check out the thread called "Best reggae shit to listen to". Ignore the title, that thread is pure quality.
     

  3. haha, yeah I got about 6 pages into it so far, thanks very much. I didn't know King Tubby had vocal stuff, all I have of him currently is instrumental, good to know.

    Super Ape is a fantastic album as well!
     
  4. Anyone got any other suggestions?
