A well-done collection of cuts originally issued on the small Rockers label headed by Augustus Pablo – groundbreaking dub material that really transformed reggae at the time, and which still stands head and shoulders above so many other work from the period! The set features rare numbers, obscure singles, and more – wonderful stuff we're happy to collected in a such a well selected compilation and certainly ripe for fresh listens after all these years! Titles include "Pablo's Theme Song", "Mountain View Dub", "BrownJim", "Ethiopia Dub", "Israel In Harmony", "Third Eye", "Pablo's Armageddon", "Memories Of The Ghetto", "King David's Melody", "Jah Dread (7" version)", "Skanking Easy", "Cassava Piece (79 Style)", and "Pablo Meets Mr Bassie".
