  • nice !!

    

  • to the Promised land !! jah bless

    peace

  • 2:03 to 2:08 i dont know if its a piano or whatever but it sounds sexy as hell

  • @dontstopbeingwack yes that is piano with some amazingly groovy chords

  • yeah rasta...mi luv dis tune too bad.

  • hardest bass line in history

  • i keep tryin' to be open minded, but i have to remain true to self...'cause i know what i really like. cha...cha...cha....

  • @islandgirllove2fete I hear you on that. I personally hate the stereotype that just because I listen to reggae/dub all the time that makes me a stoner, even though I do burn sometimes. Haha. I'll love this music forever.

  • I came across the cassette tape in a music shop in Nyeri in 1982. I fell in love with instantly. Mesmerizing DUB

  • Promised land bat by denis brown haha

  • bredden thanks for dis JAH BLESS INI MIGHTY KING OF KINGS SELASSIE I

  • UK dub like this is definitely the dub in dubstep. ASWAD, Jah Shaka etc... it's like space dub. Almost as different to roots dub as roots reggae is to dancehall IHMO. Case mon, Garvey a tug

  • Are you kidding???? Sublime????!!!!!

    I was groovin' to 'Dub Fire' in '88 when everyone in Sublime was still drinking milk..........Aswad itself dates back to early 70's.

  • i swear i've heard that trumpet riff somewhere. like in 0:16 , aaaahhhh, i'm trying to figure out where i've heard that!! if anyone knows please comment. i dunno if it was in a 311 song, or rebelution(probably not rebelution) or sublime.. hmm. 

  • @SkankinDevil89 You heard it first here kid..unless Aswad borrowed from one of the jazz greats. Many a modern producer have made shoddy rips of this horn riff.

  • Thumbs up if this is one of the best songs ever heard in your life! those brass samples! amazing!

  • @akintosh555 One of the great dub tracks - never gets boring. FYI the horns aren't samples but played live in the studio by the incomparable Aswad horn section back in those days: Michael 'Bammie' Rose, Eddie 'Tan Tan' Thornton, Vin Gordon. Simply superb!

  • @akintosh555 brass is organic - played by humans.

  • @akintosh555 what makes you think the horns are samples? they are blatantly real and being played by human beings. great tune though. i love the vocal version aswell :)

It was by complete accident that I stumbled upon this track here on Youtube. Thank you for posting this song. I now know who it is and can therefore procede to purchase their CD. Gotta love the mathematics of random chance. ~ Jay M.
