Dubly Beloved Dub dentist Keith Hudson originally recorded this one in 1984 (shortly before his death) with some gateway Dub mixed by Jammy.
UPDATE: Frenz of NSS Groovenor left a comment letting me know that the last track on the Keith Hudson Jammys Dub Encounter "Rites of Version" was foreshortened. He was kind enogh to share a link to a complete version that also contained Tuff Gong Encounter. I have swapped out my damaged version for his new share. Thanks from all, Groovenor.

Version Big- Fi. Very interesting and and uplifting.Never heard of them. Thanks NØ.
ReplyDeleteDon't really know much about them. Just really liked their sound. Had gradually gathered tracks of theirs as I heard them & then put this together. Thanks, k.p.
DeleteHey NØ, lovin' the dubtember posts. Keith Hudson was short on the last track but when lookin' for it on the interwebs, I realized I had an expanded version which also included Tuff Gong Encounter. https://workupload.com/file/mGvjXZw9KuP to get the whole enchilada, shebang, etc. Keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteGroovenor, thanks so much for the heads-up & the link. See the UPDATE notice & changes above.

Thanks again for the dub! First time hearing Version Big-Fi.
ReplyDeleteOne of my fave dub records from last year was Blanc du Blanc-Scientist Meets Blanc du Blanc; Before the Beginning. It's a monster. Link here: https://mega.nz/folder/bk4QgYjR#lZIPsqR_dVGaAEHR6fW1WQ
Version Big-Fi are one of the new 21st Century Dub outfits that do things just a little different fromall others.
DeleteThanks so much for the link. I am a big fan of Scientist (he will be the starting chapter of this years Dubtember) so I'm looking forward to hearing this offering.
