Skin, Flesh & Bones - Dub In Blood (Pressure Sounds)

The man behind this long player, originally released on his Sunshot label, is producer Phil Pratt. To make things more confusing, the album was also released in the UK as 'The Best Dub Album In The World', a release for which the titles of the different tracks were also altered. On top of that, both the sleeve of the original Sunshot release and that of the English edition, list 10 tracks, while the LP itself contains but nine. The tracks on 'Dub In Blood', for which Pratt invented titles referring to clinical terms ('Injection Dub', 'Syringe Dub', 'Dub To The Vein'...), are all dub versions of songs by Al Campbell and Earl George aka George Faith, and were recorded at Channel One Studio by Ernest Hoo Kim and Ossie Hibbert with Sly Dunbar's Skin, Flesh & Bones as session band. As usual, Pressure Sounds added a number of bonus tracks to the original track list: this time four dubs that were also mixed at Channel One, supplemented with a dub version of All Campbell's 'Natty Dread Bandwagon' recorded at Lee 'Scratch' Perry's Black Ark. Excellent dub album!
