5.0 out of 5 stars You May Need Medical Attention From Nodding So Much!!, November 16, 2005

Seriously, this compilation brings the bass and head bobbing of the best dub reggae. For 66 minutes, you too can bob along to the masters of this art form, from the architect, King Tubby, to his offspring (Scientist, Dillinger, etc.). There's a great reworking of the classic "Night Nurse," as well as a modern updating of two Black Uhuru tracks, pulling dub into the 21st century. If you happen to think that P. Diddy invented the remix, you should first slap yourself, and then get this compilation to further your musical education.
