Gay Feet / Dub Store Records JPN 1967
¥1580 (US$10.23)
Miriam Makeba’s sensational “Pata Pata” timely covered in rocksteady fashion by Patsy Millicent Todd in 1967. Strictly nyahbinghi yet sounding pop somehow - it’s an unmissable tune for those who know.

Keith Hudson - Darkest Night On A Wet Looking Road / Darkest Night Version

Augustus Pablo - Stabiliser (Single Take) / Alton Ellis - All We Need Is Love
Stamma / Dub Store Records JPN 1974
¥1480 (US$9.58)
The true genius Keith Hudson introduced highly mutational sounds and sound effects at the time and this Pablo organ cut of “Peter & Judas” is no exception. Slightly different cut to the one included in “Flesh of My Skin Blood of My Blood” known as the monumental and arguably the first reggae concept album that is rated as important as “Blackboard Jungle Dub” in dub music. This cut is the fat original take mixed prior to the LP.
Count Ossie Band - Lulumba (Alternative Take) / Lulumba
Gay Feet / Dub Store Records JPN 1971
¥2180 (US$14.11)
Needless to say one of the top Count Ossie's nyabinghi pieces but also a Jamaican rare groove masterpiece accompanied by Ernest Ranglin and Leslie Butler.

Atom / Dub Store Records JPN 1974
¥1480 (US$9.58)

Earl Flute - The Betrayer / Chuckles - The Betrayer (Instrumental)
Mafia / Dub Store Records JPN 1973
¥1480 (US$9.58)
Out of all those China lead Soul Syndicate vocals this one has to be the tightest although here the rare flute instrumental is the business. At the time Keith Hudson had the original JA funk sounds going on in his rhythms.
Keith Hudson - Satan Side / Earl Flute, Horace Andy - Peter & Judas
Mafia / Dub Store Records JPN 1972
¥1480 (US$9.58)
Versions, dubwise, horn riffs and what not – all of those creative elements made this great tune and it was only Keith Hudson who had an ability to make it all possible. Even if you’re no an ordinary reggae listener you should try this. Apart from Hudson, at this time in Jamaica there was a number of eccentric producers like Lee Perry, Pablo, Niney and co who used their studio like an instrument to create their own sounds.
