Dubtember 28 - Dub to Cure the Weak of Heart

 

Here's one from Joe Jackson...not that Joe Jackson, but Ranking Joe, Kingston Jamaica born DJ. Ranking Joe came out of the original Jamaican Sound System culture. He went to school with Winston McAnuff, U Brown, & Earl Sixteen. They often entertained the Dancehall crowds together. Joe's big break in international terms came in 1980, when the Ray Symbolic Hi Fi Sound System, with which he was then the resident deejay, toured the United Kingdom. His UK stint helped raise his profile & with the heightened attention, his album Weakheart Fadeaway became a major seller for Greensleeves Records.
