ALBUM DESCRIPTION
In the 1970's, reggae producers began to put dub versions of popular songs on the 'B' sides of 7 inch singles. Since then, vaults from the likes of Studio One and Trojan have continued to release countless dub compilations, precious treasures for the diehard reggae aficionado.
But what about Christian Dub artists? Besides Christafari's one release (DUB Sound&Power) and the ever enigmatic Yabby You and Messian Dread, many have searched long and hard for a true Christian roots artist that is devoted to DUB 100% of the time. Search no longer: introducing Solomon Jabby, AKA "The Dub Revelator."
This self-produced gem remains true to the original dub roots foundation yet inna Christian stylee. Through a barrage of echoes and reverberations on vintage gear and actual live instruments, Jabby brings the classic sounds of Channel One to the 21st century while firmly proclaiming that Christ is the light.
While predominately a dub album, "Rootical Revelations" features several vocal tracks as well as a few instrumentals with tasty solos on the melodica, saxophone and guitar.
Hailing from Georgia, Solomon Jabby is the East Coast's answer to vintage Sly and Robbie and the Mad Professor. This multitalented solo artist writes, records, produces, and plays all of the instruments himself--talk about mad skills!
If you like 70's style reggae, lovers rock and dub you will flip out over Solomon Jabby. After initially overcoming the shock that these fifteen songs weren't recorded decades ago with someone like Lee Scratch Perry at the helm, you will feel an overwhelming sense of satisfaction that you chose to buy a real roots reggae album instead of that Casio keyboard junk that is so prevalent in today's gospel dancehall. This one will stay on your disc changer for decades and merely appreciate with age like a fine wine. Order a copy today-it's the (dub)wise thing to do!!!
