... And the best dub album ever goes to (dramatic pause while god opens the envelope)... Lee Perry and The Upsetters for their 1976 album 'Super Ape' (mad applause and cheering).
Yes indeed - this album goes back to when dub almost began, and although there were a few albums before it such as 'Pick A Dub' and 'Surrounded by the Dreads at the National Arena', etc. 'Super Ape' came along and took that dub sound that its predecessors were scratching at and perfected it. Lee Scratch Perry is a musical legend and a true genius - Praise Jah. -
Edited 15 years agoIts the sort of album that makes you want to go and spend all your money on Jamaican records.
