Track notes

1. Skank On Dub
   This killer lost until now alternative version of Augustus's Skanking Dub, see's him working over the original Swing Easy rhythm.
2. Wayout Rockers
   Another lost till now gem see's Augustus working a cut to Charlie Ace's George Forman. Which originally came out on the "Swing-A-Ling" label.
3. Pablo's Express
   Pablo versioning here in fine form over the late great Jacob Miller's False Rasta. Nice. This is an alternative version to the track we know as 555 Crown Street.
4. Pablo's Happy Feeling
   An alternative version of Fort Augustus Rock produced by Mr Winston Edwards [a.k.a. Bunny Lee] in 1972. First cut by Errol Dunkley as Life Is Sweet this classic rhythm also known as Tipatone Rock has been versioned by many including Big Youth and Roman Stewart who named it Try Me.
5. Soldier Man Dub
   A version of the 1972 Kid Ralph classic using the Soldier Boy melody worked with this wicked rhythm. Just listen........
6. Well Frozen Dub
   This is an alternative version of Frozen Dub found on King Tubby's Meets The Rockers Uptown set unreleased till now, straight from the master tape.
7. Sweet Cassava Dub
   An alternative instrumental version of the King Tubby Meets The Rockers Uptown rhythm. The well known vocal version featured Jacob Miller and was titled Baby I Love You So. This must be one of Augustus's best loved tracks, here in raw dub fashion, straight from the master tapes false starts an all ...enjoy.

12. Death Trap
    This original Death Trap rhythm later made famous by Johnny Clarke with his version called Ride On Girls. The rhythm is King.
13. Rockers Downtown
    A musical compliment to the Rockers Uptown rhythm versioned over Paul Whiteman's [a.k.a. Paul Blackman] Say So.
