"1978 Slum In Dub album re-issued on CD and 180 gram vinyl in its original cover. Gregory Isaacs, the Cool Ruler, or Lonely Lover, the man with the laconic voice and equally laconic delivery who sings as easily of matters of the heart or earthly horrors is well known to all Jamaican enthusiasts, but few realise that he also sat the other side of the studio glass and was a very proficient producer too. Gregory Isaacs wrote much of his own work and also produced it, so it shouldn’t be any surprise to find that this dub album consisting of mainly Mr Isaacs’s work was produced by him too. Although the mixing, which is of course the major enjoyment factor of any dub album, was done by a talented protégée of King Tubby; Lloyd ‘Jammy’ James who started out as ‘Prince’ but was promoted to ‘King’ a few years later. ..."
