this 20 track-album pulls together undocumented jamaican singles (& one dub plate) from 1968 to 1973! alternate mixes were to become one of perrys production trade marks at his fabled black ark studio and of course are now an everyday part of music marketing. the usual high quality packaging and graphics are all secondary to a great set of productions from the upsetter that are as good as anything that pressure sounds previously released from mr perry.

bristol archive records are pleased to announce their first foray into the world of the reggae 12 inch single with a brace of releases from bristol reggae legend joshua moses, strictly limited to 800 copies worldwide.
the first is >africa (is our land)<, originally released in 1978 on the more cut label produced by dennis bovell it is now acknowledged as a classic slice of uk roots and on the rare occasions copies surface they regularly command over £100. we included the vocal side on >the bristol reggae explosion 1978-1983<, now following numerous requests we have decided to issue it in its original format along with the original dub mix.

our second 12 inch from joshua moses is >rise up<, another strong roots outing this time from 1983 that until its inclusion on bristol reggae explosion volume 2 had remained unissued and unknown to the reggae audience. judging from the feedback we have already received, >rise up< could become as popular as >africa (is our land)< and so we have chosen to release it along with the previously unreleased accompanying dub version on the format for which it was always intended.

re-issue of this 1976 release by tappa zukie, mixed at king tubbys studio.

als einer der meilensteine der jamaikanischen dubgeschichte gilt tappa zukies album -in dub-. 1976 erschien es zu einer zeit, als dub eine hochphase erlebte, aber selbst im vergleich mit den nicht wenigen hochkaraetigen alben dieser zeit, schneidet -in dub- selbst heute noch hervorragend ab. tappa zukie, geboren als david sinclair in kingston, jamaica, war so etwas wie die rechte hand des produzenten bunny -striker- lee, wenn dieser seine beruehmten -late night sessions- abhielt. was lag da naeher, als einmal eine eigene session aufzunehmen? acht rhythms auf -in dub- stammen von bunny lee, einer vom produzenten jo jo hookim, ein weiterer von ossie hibbert. die vokalversionen zu einigen tracks auf diesem album finden sich uebrigens auf zukies album -m. p.l. a.-. aber natuerlich funktionieren die 13 tracks auf -in dub- auch ganz ohne worte.
