Pablo Gad
Hard Times
Soul Village 2006
If you think you know all of the important works in the dub canon and you havent checked out Hard Times, hit's time to backtrack a bit. Pablo Gad is an unsung British roots wailer who recorded a some really tough politically charged releases in the late-1970s and early 1980s before mysteriously disappearing from recording. Id love to find some more information about Gad and what hes been up to for the last twenty-five years, but for now all I have to go by is his recorded legacy which, in addition to this one, includes a 1993 Best Of comp (Reggae On Top), Trafalgar Square (AKA Bloodsuckers) (Burning Sound), and some singles. While a lot of this isnt easy to find, the title track Hard Times appears on a few compilations including Adrian Sherwoods Dont Call Us Immigrants compilation.

yeah, but this ain't the dub version, which used to shake the foundations of me and the neighbours' houses with fairly frequently back in 1982...
