Dub Organiser produced by Gussie P, Trevor Elliott, Lee Scratch Perry, Ranking Joe, King Jammy, Oswald Thomas, Phillip Morgan, Laurel Pinnock for Digikal, Upsetter, Jammy’s, Black Solidarity, Taurus in 1973
1973 dub from the Dub Organiser camp pulls together a deep spread of Jamaican roots and early dancehall voices, with cuts from Augustus Pablo, Dillinger, Jah Lloyd, Johnny Lover, Johnny Osbourne, Ranking Joe, Half Pint, King Kong, and The Upsetters. The project is tied to Gussie P, Trevor Elliott, Lee Scratch Perry, Ranking Joe, King Jammy, Oswald Thomas, Phillip Morgan, and Laurel Pinnock across Digikal, Upsetter, Jammy’s, Black Solidarity, and Taurus, and it leans into the version-heavy sound of the era with multiple takes on “Identify Me” and the well-known “Scratch The Dub Organiser. ” Augustus Pablo’s “Dub Organizer” and Dillinger’s title cut give the set extra weight, while the compilation also reflects how widely this rhythm traveled through the 1970s and 1980s.
