==Reviews==
:Living Dub Volumes One & Two. 
:Essential. The Burning Spear vocal albums Social Living/Marcus Garvey and Hail H.I.M. are essential to any roots collection, and their dub versions no less so. In keeping with Mr. Rodney's taste for country living, (Sylvain) Morris allows plenty of space around instruments and voice as they fade in and out of the mix. Quite eerie, at times, particularly when Winston Rodney's disembodied voice floats across the mix. Note that the Heartbeat CD versions of these albums are completely different 1990s remixes, courtesy of Barry O'Hare.
