Reissue - Miraculously rare and seriously obscure killer dubs. One of the very few hard core seventies dub albums mixed by Errol Brown. A selection of solid dubs originally recorded in 1978 by BB Seaton at Duke Reid s legendary Treasure Isle studio and mixed in-house by the Duke s nephew Errol Brown. A radical departure for all concerned this bold dub album was never officially released although a few clandestine copies reputedly did the New York rounds at the time. MOJO by David Katz - Extremely rare 1978 dub album stands up against any from that era - -Errol Brown began engineering through family connections, producer Duke Reid was his uncle. Trained by the highly-skilled Byron Smith, chief engineer at Reid s Treasure Isle facility, Brown cut his teeth mixing Alton Ellis, The Paragons, Peter Tosh and Marcia Griffiths. -Orthodox Dub- dates from 1978 when BB Seaton of The Gaylads was working closely with Brown at Treasure Isle, cutting tracks with Ken Boothe and Mikey Dread along with self-produced work, and although only ever issued in tiny numbers as pre-release LP in the Bronx, these dubs pack a mighty punch, easily on par with any of the dub sets issued in the era by Channel One or Joe Gibbs. Outstanding tracks include -Roots Rockas-, a stripped down cut of Boothe s -Who Really Cares-, and -Black Forest Rock-, a bass-heavy reading of Seaton s -Is Life-.-
