Kamikazi Dub (1979)

Lloyd James, known as Prince Jammy, learned at King Tubby's studio, and this set shows the next generation taking over. The mixes are tougher and punchier than his teacher's, with snare echoes flung across the stereo field and a heavy, steady low end built for sound systems. Choose it to hear dub moving from the late 1970s towards the harder sound of the 1980s.
