Surrounded by the Dreads at the National Arena (Vinyl LP)

Right in the capital of Jamaica, King Tubby proved his potency by playing a twelve hour set in September 1975. Surrounded by the Dreads at the National Arena is a testament to that night's power, force and King Tubby's legendary impact on everything we call dub today. A piece of history to bob your head to.

"On the 26th September 1975 at the National Arena, Kingston, Jamaica, King Tubby's sound system entertained the excited audience gathered there to listen to the almighty live sound of the Wailers on stage and the overpowering dub music that Tubby has made world famous. On this particular night Tubby proved that he was King playing from 6pm to 6am. King Tubby Surrounded By The Dreads At The National Arena is based upon some of the various tracks that King Tubby played that night." Carl Gayle. Black Music
