Possibly the wrong forum to be asking this question (:lol:) but does anyone know any decent artists to check out for dub reggae?

It's a genre I know little about and fancy exploring. The more tripped out and messed up the better.

Thanks (?)
 
King Tubby (definitely)
Lee Scratch Perry
Augustus Pablo

A good introduction would be to get some Trojan box sets:

I'm not an expert, but it's a genre I dabble in occasionally. (Obviously goes well with a beer and a 'jazz cigarette'. :lol:) Much prefer it to reggae reggae (e.g. Bob Marley and the like).

Have you heard Primal Scream's 'Vanishing Point'? That's an awesome album with a big dub influence.
