Pure Ranking ... LP
1979. New Copy (reissue)....
Early March, 2013 (delayed)
Rootsy work from the 70s – not disco style, per the title! We don't care whether you dub him the original Ragnam Piza or the Dub Organizer, Dillinger chats it up in nice style on this set of bouncing Bunny Lee rhythms, keeping himself busy, so you don't have to! The bionic dread unleashes a... read more
Another massive Tubby dub collection, but you might never know it from the cheap looking cover. Mid to late 70s dub workouts of Striker Lee tracks cut by the mighty Aggrovators, some with radical dub effects and one drops, others with a nice and subtle touch flavoring the mix. 14 tracks: "Bon... read more

King Of Dub ... LP
Late 70s. New Copy (reissue)....
$11.99Mid-April, 2013 (delayed)
The undisputed King, even to this day! 10 more blazing Tubby dub rubs, ample evidence to why he's remained enthroned to this day: space echo drops and reverb adding some tasty dub sauce to chugging rhythms from Sly & Robbie, Fully Fullwood, Santa Davis, Wire Lindo, Chinna Smith and others. ... read more
A dozen Aggrovators jams from the golden age of Jamaican music, all with Tubby's expert knob twirling taking them into the next dimension. We aren't entirely certain, we'd hazard a guess that these are all Bunny Lee productions, filled out nicely with fat bass, crisp hi hats and a heavy thumping... read more

Rocker's Almighty Dub ... LP
Clocktower,
Late 70s. New Copy (reissue)....
$12.99Temporarily Out Of Stock
10 excellent roots rock rhythms given a nice dub treatment, and though we're selling this record as most shops do, as a King Tubby side, we'd be willing to wager he actually wasn't around his studio when this was mixed, and certainly wasn't around Joe Gibbs' or Bullwackies when the cuts included... read more

$11.99Out Of Stock
The Roots Of Dub from The Dub Master – the one-and-only King Tubby. That's pretty much all you need to hear to know that this album rumbles with floor shaking bass, thunderous reverb drops and chattering echo, nicing up the heavy duty rhythms laid down by the Aggrovators. Hail to the King! ... read more

Ital Dub ... LP

$12.99Out Of Stock
We're not entirely certain of the precise connection to Pablo here, as this set is credited as Augustus Pablo Presents, but it's excellent all the same – and there is some tasty knob twirling courtesy of the master King Tubby! There's some sweet melodica blowing over some rhythms that sound... read more
Truly, truly one of the most essential reggae albums of all time, and without a doubt one of our top dub albums. While we may be known for our hyperbolic comments on LPs here at Dusty, this album is very much deserving of the praise, and if you don't own it, you need to. Basically a collection of... read more
Pivotal Black Ark material from Lee Perry – with brilliantly tripped out echoey dub production – and scorching instrumentation laid down by the mighty Upsetters! Split roughly in half between Perry's nicely gritty instrumental moodcraft and hazy vocals, this collection features some... read more

Benchmark Scientist dub – great stuff recorded and mixed at King Tubby's near the end of the 70s – and it's some of tightest, heaviest dubs of the period! Scientist works over some of the heftiest Aggrovator sides on this legendary set – one of favorite dub records, period! One... read more

Seminal Dee Jay numbers from one of the men who's help usher in the Dancehall era in Jamaican music. Nkrumah Thomas's tracks are steeped in the roots tradition, but were looking ahead to the newer sounds rocking the Island as the musical climate changed, ad this classic album showcases the man at... read more

Late 70s. New Copy (reissue)....
Mid-April, 2013 (delayed)
You could go 'round and 'round with music historians arguing whether or not this album, or Java Java Java or Aquarius Dub was the first full length dub LP, but it makes no difference to us, this is one mighty set of Perryisms, wrought in the pre-Black Ark era. There's a dozen of the Upsetter's... read more
