  • class

  • so did lee scratch perry steal this beat or what

  • @anobe42o He made it together with dub syndicate

  • @anobe42o Scratch didn't steal this , he did an album with Dub Syndicate (Time Boom X - De Devil Dead) on On-U Sound that uses the same backing tracks.

    A great tradition in reggae & dub, to use the same tracks with different front artists.

  • @boo66 right on, irie

  • Wow this video and dub is amazing!

  • I bought the album after seeing this on the tube, great track. The director also made a great animated video for Sly and Robbie - boops (here to go). Such a shame the tube came to an end there's nothing like it on TV now.

  • Must be Dreaming.

  • Just to be clear this song is by Dub Syndicate and is on the "Tunes from the missing channel" LP which is on the On-U Sounds label.

  • This track was also used as the intro to Steve Barkers excellent BBC Lancs radio show. 'On the wire". On-U Sound featured heavily in the 80s.

  • I have a recollection, from a few years later, of another video competition on Channel 4 (probably not The Tube) by then, that featured a Tackhead track; maybe What's My Mission Now? I just happened to turn it on and there it was ... I'm almost certain I didn't dream it.

  • MANG!  this track goes hard.....

  • Brilliant find! I had no idea they'd been on The Tube

  • long time on-u fan , go deh postin

  • what is this song by ravi shankar called?

  • Yeah, I used to put this tune on repeat.

    Good one.

  • Dub Syndicate. Can't fault 'em. First heard this tune 17 years ago and it's still one of my all time favourites.

  • Lee scratch perry on the wire...

  • The good old times... dub on TV...

  • wow, this is a cool video (the song too of course, it's called "Ravi Shankar" (yes, he plays the sitar) by Dub Syndicate)

  • that sounds cool the song but the vid is confusing
