As a follow up to my dub albums piece, Marcus Scott has sent over his favourite dub albums, which I am posting here with his permissions as more dub can only be a good thing.

Marcus Scott sent me his excellent dub album recommendations, which I am posting here with his permission.

George faith - to be a lover - (vocals but with perrys black art treatment v special)

Mainly covers but in a stripped down hypnotic style - a unique album

boris gardiner- ultra super dub vol 1 - funky quite early dub instrumentals - gardiner was a bass player and band leader of note, not just the guy who did that lovely dovey song

scientist space invaders - obvs choice but it's a killer with perfect use of bleeps and blops

herb collie dub skatelites - they reformed mid 70s and recorded in black ark and tubby's studio - there's some killer gear in here

tubby meets harry mudie dub conference 1 - mudie was a jazz guy and this is stripped down and jazzy and a high point of beautifully articulated dub

yabby you and tubby - beware dub - love yabby you - in another world he would have sung in a doom metal band, stern and heavy

tappa zukie in dub - zukie takes the best dubs and has fun mixing them with a lot of energy , mostly bunny lee tracks

glen brown / king tubby termination dub - again pretty funky stuff, tuff and powerful

aswad - new chapter in dub very musical dynamic - lots of great isolation of horns etc - a beautiful record

twinkle bros - dub massacre - cold stepping dub by mad professor and shaka together

black uhuru - the dub factor - compass point all stars and paul groucho smykle inna expensive studio.

firehouse dub vol 2 - sippa cup meets negus roots - think this is a recent comp of excellent 80s dub, i had a few 12 off it

tradition -- captain ganja and the space patrol - awful name - great radiophonics workshop inspired uk dub

cry tuff dub encounter vol 3 (also general strike danger in paradise - same ppl) the general strike guys, beresford and toop with the slits making a joyful sound with Adrian Sherwood

hugh mundell ital sip - the greatest dub track of all time - augustus pablo - everything about it is perfect
