original Jamaican reggae dub album produced by Vivian Jackson: Prophets BEWARE DUB (Grove Music records)

original 1978 pressing
PROPHETS, YABBY YOU, SKULLY
TOMMY McCOOK, TONY TUFF
BEWARE DUB

An all-time classic dub collection put together by Vivian "Yabby U" Jackson with his various artists' productions traversing a wide-ranging set of serious sound sessions remixed and x-rayed version stylee at Channel One & King Tubby's. Gladiators join Revolutionaries for a lethal rhythmic combination with Skully on top. Fantastic knob twirling keeps these cuts in constant motion and evolution as Yabby kicks them all up a notch. High grade drum and bass echo highlights include "Beware", "Give Praises", "Prophets", "Plague", "Deliverance", "Together" and many other window pane rattlers. Bar none, one of the best dub albums ever.

The ORIGINAL 1978 Grove Music vinyl is in near mint condition with no skips, no warp, no scratch. The original cover is also in mint shape with no disc imprints, no bent corners, no split seams and no handwriting anywhere. Buyer need not beware on this beauty.

"Wail ye, for the day of the Lord' is at hand; it shall come as a destruction from the almighty. Behold, the day of the Lord cometh, cruel, with wrath and fierce anger to lay the land desolate and he shall destroy sinners there out of it. And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity, and I will cause the arrogance of the proud to cease, and I will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible." -ISAIAH CHAPTER 13
