AOV13 PRINCE ALLA meets Jah Warrior « More dub » CD

	Prince Alla is a true legend of reggae music with a career spanning 30 years. Born Keith Blake in Jamaica, he grew up in the Greenwich Farm ghetto of Kingston. His first venture into music was as a member of The Leaders, a late 1960's group who recorded several tunes for Joe Gibbs. In the early 1970's he surfaced under the name Ras Alla, recording for Tappa Zukie, including the album "Heaven Is My Roof. Changing his name again to Prince Alla, he linked up with fellow Greenwich Farm producer Bertram Brown, whose Freedom Sounds label was a major centre of roots music in the mid to late 70's, where other artists such as Rod Taylor, Phillip Frazier and Earl Zero also worked, backed by the Soul Syndicate band. Many people regard Prince Alla's work with Freedom Sounds as the highlight of his career, spawning a string of classics like "Bucket Bottom, "Stone", "Cities", "Lot's Wife", and others, all mixed at King Tubbys studio.
	A serious, humble and genuine rastaman, in recent years he has also worked with Jah Shaka, whilst his classic older material has been brought to the attention of a new audience courtesy of 2 albums on the Blood & Fire reissue label, "Only Love Can Conquer" and "Heaven Is My Roof". In the UK Prince Alla has had an album released with The Disciples called "One Bright Day", whilst his first album with Jah Warrior entitled "Glory" was released in Spring 2000, then his "More Love" album released in 2002.
	And here's the staggering follow up !! "More dub" 2003. Fourteen amazing dub versions. Rootsy yet modern sounding with at times some little stepper incursion. Most of the songs have a great K. Tubby's vibe with some more deep, worked parts... aka "meditation time" all those backed by P. Alla sweet yet powerful vocals.

Prince Alla tours regularly in Europe nowadays and shall hit your country pretty soon... keep an eye out.
