12 tracks new to CD. Joe Gibbs' entire dub album output from the 1970s. Includes some of the most acclaimed dub albums of all time. The 1970s were a golden age for dub music, with the decade witnessing it's humble beginnings through to it becoming a dominant force on the Jamaican music scene. Throughout this fascinating evolution were a handful of pioneering sound engineers who transformed the style from relatively simple experimentations in sound to awe-inspiring reggae masterpieces, with their pioneering work continuing to inspire and influence music makers the world over, up until the present day. Leading this dub revolution were such seminal figures as King Tubby, Errol Brown, Scientist, Prince Jammy and perennial hitmaker, Errol Thompson, whose work with music impresario Joe Gibbs produced some of the biggest hits of the 1970s and beyond. Much of the latter's dub output from the decade was featured on seven popular long- players that saw issue in Jamaica on Gibbs's eponymously titled record label between 1974 and 1979, commencing with the experimental, yet hugely influential, 'Dub Serial' and ultimately culminating with the suitably titled 'Majestic Dub' from five years later. Now, for the first time ever, all of these classic dub masterpieces are collected on this essential 4CD collection, which, as a bonus, also includes a dozen superb dub sides from the close of the 70s, all of which make their CD debut.
