This is classic, and definitely one of the more popular albums showcasing early Jamaican experimentalism and studio wizardry - the dub. Of course, you already know you're getting some of the best just by checking the credits.

Each first track is Jacob Miller's own spirited and beautiful roots reggae, immediately followed by a dub mix on each second track by King Tubby.

This almost wouldn't seem much for an album, given that there are 12 tracks (6, actually, considering each second track is just a mix of the previous one), and the album is over in a short amount of time... but it never disappoints once, and is, all in all, one of my personal favourite reggae / dub albums.
