2016 - Mad Professor and the Robotics featuring Lee Scratch Perry: Black Ark Classics in Dub

2016 - Mad Professor and the Robotics featuring
Lee Scratch Perry: Black Ark Classics in Dub @320

I'm reflexively skeptical about albums with the name Lee Perrys in their titles. Too often I have been the victim of unrestrained "perryploitation". But since Mad Professor is actually a serious guy and he was clever enough to write “Black Ark” in addition to “Perry” in the title, I curiously clicked into the new album “Mad Professor and the Robotics featuring Lee Scratch Perry: Black Ark Classics in Dub“(Ariwa). Lo and behold, the crazy professor has actually once again put a crazy idea into action and achieved a small, fine concept masterpiece: Lee Perry's classics (not only from the Black Ark era) were reproduced and turned into great, modern ones Dubs and instrumentals processed. Occasionally Perry contributes a few vocals, but that is clear. Most of the time we hear pure Dubs, orchestrated and arranged in a virtuoso manner, played with full force and, of course, mixed in an academically sophisticated way by the professor. And although everything sounds so beautifully modern here, the professor and his gifted robotics managed to conjure up the vibe of the old original recordings. If Lee Perry hadn't destroyed his Black Ark and was still producing today, the chances would be good that his recordings would sound just like that. Here they are all, the love classics: "Party Time", "Soul Fire", "Groovy Situation", "Roast Fish and Cornbread", "Zion Blood" and many more. I cannot praise the album highly enough. Too bad Mad Professor has produced and released so much mediocre music in the past few years. This practice may cost the “Black Ark Classics In Dub“-Album now has the attention it deserves to be considered a newer Dub-Classics to go down in the history of the genre. (DubBlog)

* The 27th volume of this series was released early in September 2026. I have them all from Vol 1 through to Vol 27. The first one was a single cd only. Vol 2 to Vol 4 expanded to double cd set and then from Vol 5 to Vol 27 it expanded to a triple cd set. It's taken a long time to collect good copies of these, many I have converted to 320 from Flac copies. I spent time sourcing replacement tracks to replace the fake ones. I have these in the laptop at the moment as I am sending  the set to someone, and sharing some other volumes somewhere else. So I thought ok I should share them here on Vibes as well. So I will post the series here in order over the next month or so. I don't keep art work but will try to collect the covers for each volume via Discogs. *

2010 - Solomon Burke - Nothing's Impossible

2010 - Solomon Burke - Nothing's Impossible @320

It's all but impossible to make a bad record with Solomon Burke; as a vocalist, the man is simply a force of nature, and all you have to do is point him in front of a microphone and let him do his stuff and you'll have something worth hearing. But coming up with accompaniment that's worthy of Burke's talents isn't quite as simple, and for a man who cut his teeth working with the likes of Jerry Wexler and Bert Berns, finding the right producer in this day and age is no simple matter. Nothing's Impossible teams Burke with another legend of Southern soul, the great producer, arranger, and songwriter Willie Mitchell (best-known for his work with Al Green) who had been after Burke to make an album with him for years. One listen to Nothing's Impossible confirms that Mitchell's instincts were right on the money; this music has just the right heft and texture for Burke, rich, strong, and gospel-influenced R&B that's sturdy enough to support Burke's earth-shaking vocals while giving the star of the show enough room to move comfortably. Mitchell's subtle, expressive use of strings and horns is very much in evidence here, and the rhythm section cuts a deep, implacable groove. 

The church has always been one of Burke's strongest vocal influences, and on Nothing's Impossible, Mitchell and his studio crew allow Burke to raise up as much Sunday morning fervor as he needs; on longer numbers like "Dreams" and "It Must Be Love," Burke stretches out like a preacher hitting a groove in front of a congregation, and hearing the King of Rock and Soul get the spirit is a remarkable thing. Burke and Mitchell contributed to the songwriting on these sessions, with both men bringing their A game, and though the notion of Burke covering Anne Murray's hit "You Needed Me" might sound dire, once you hear him do it, it's hard not to be awestruck at the way he brings the old warhorse to life. The sad irony of Nothing's Impossible is that after decades of trying to lure Solomon Burke into his studio, Burke showed up in time for what proved to be Willie Mitchell's final production project, as Mitchell succumbed to heart failure a few months before the album was released. But if this record is Willie Mitchell's final musical offering, Solomon Burke made certain that the man closed out his career on a high note; this is old-school R&B that's smart, passionate, and powerful, and proves the King of Rock and Soul still rules his kingdom with a sure hand.

1977 - Ramones Leave Home (40th Anniversary Deluxe Edition 2017)

1977 - Ramones Leave Home
(40th Anniversary Deluxe Edition 2017) @320

Following the success of last year’s 40th anniversary edition of the Ramones’ self-titled debut album, Rhino are treating us to a deluxe edition of the band’s follow-up Leave Home. Still revered as a classic album, Leave Home is 30 minutes of no messing punk rock and bubblegum pop. It is a mix that defined the Ramones’ sound. The album also produced some of their most famous songs, like Pinhead and California Sun.

The Ramones are often considered to be one of the first punk bands. Their musical style, stage presence and attitude influenced the likes of Malcolm McLaren, The Sex Pistols and The Clash. It was the Ramones’ insistence to have their records speeded up to match the velocity of their live shows, that helped shape the punk sound. And with their matching leather jackets and straight-fringe haircuts; the band’s cartoony nature made them one of the most recognisable bands of all time.

Fans and collectors alike will love this release. It is a real treat, as it not only includes the original album on CD, but a 40th anniversary mix on CD and vinyl. The 40th anniversary mixes have been created from the original multitrack tapes by original engineer Ed Stasium. The new mixes are designed to reflect the Ramones’ raw power and fatten the sound.

The package also includes a live recording from a gig the band played in 1977, at the famous CBGB. The venue staged the Ramones’ very first shows, and the two have become entwined in music folklore. There are also rough mixes, unreleased material and extras, including the single Sheena Is A Punk Rocker.

No follower of punk can credibly call themselves a fan of the genre if they don’t have an affection for the Ramones. And if you like the Ramones you’re going to absolutely love this 40th anniversary edition of their brilliant sophomore LP. ( Songwriter Magazine)
