Word from Only Roots: ‘Killer Dub album produced by Ranking Joe circa 1979 / 1980 with the Roots Radics. Released for the first time on CD in 1999. Some copies were pressed by Jammyland (USA) on vinyl in 2001 but without a sleeve. We have a limited stock of this vinyl for which we made a sleeve. Hand-printed, the appearance of the sleeve may vary.’

A stupendous haul of sound-system specials and inspired experiments conjured from some of the greatest reggae rhythms of all time, from the inner sanctum of King Tubby’s studio in the mid-seventies (where Philip Smart was second engineer).
Seething with lethal touches of Tubby; dotted with head-spinning walk-ons for Hugh Mundell, Johnny Clarke, Jacob Miller and co; steeped in the genius of young Augustus Pablo, Smart’s childhood friend.
A staggering turn-up. Utterly crucial.
