Get On Down continues to establish itself as the premier label for

top-shelf reissues with another classic release from iconic Ohio funk

band Slave. Released amidst the group’s most prolific era, 1979’s Just a

Touch of Love features the lush arrangements and intense rhythms that

are the band’s signature. Showing their versatility, the album features

songs like the space boogie bounce of “Warning” and the inspirational

“Roots,” with soaring vocals from Mark Hicks, plus the title track,

which was a Top 10 hit on the R&B charts. Though Slave continued to

record into the 80s, they never again reached the heights heard on this

very special album. This edition of Just a Touch of Love features the

same high standard of quality expected with every Get On Down title,

with digitally remastered audio and packaged in a paste-on mini-LP

case in a clear poly bag.

Within any musical style, there are a few select works that resonate so strongly with audiences that they come to define the genre itself, taking on a mythical quality that transforms the album into something greater than the sum of its individual parts. Meets Uptown Rockers, the 1976 collaboration between producer instrumentalist Augustos Pablo and visionary dub engineer Osbourne “King Tubby” Ruddock, is one of those historic releases. The album, which features Pablo playing melodica, clavinet, piano and organ, contains some of the greatest dub songs of all time, including ’s “Baby I Love You So,” and the darkly seductive title track. The chemistry between Pablo’s beautiful “Far East” signature sound and King Tubby’s meticulous attention to sonic detail results in an album the Virgin Encyclopedia of says is “regarded by many as one of the greatest dub albums of all time.” Though previously released by different labels with various track listings, Get On Down’s reissue of Meets Rockers Uptown is the definitive edition of dub’s definitive album, featuring audio mastered from the original analog tapes and packaged in a paste-on mini-LP slip case in a clear plastic poly bag.

Placed within legendary reggae producer Lee “Scratch” Perry’s prolific

discography, The Upsetters Chapter 1 stands out as one of the eccentric

genius’s most interesting, adventurous works. Using a combination of

established collaborators and new musicians, Perry creates a classic dub

record that pulses with deep bass, echoing percussion and dissonant

sound effects. Spiritual cuts (“When Jah Come”) are balanced by grand

dub productions (“Tighten Up”), creating a cohesive, infectious sound

that rivals the Upsetter’s finest material. After releasing Perry’s

landmark album Blackboard Jungle Dub, Get On Down is proud to

present another masterpiece from reggae’s supreme musical architect.

Remastered from the original analog tapes, The Upsetters Chapter 1

features the highest quality audio transfer and is packaged in a paste-on

mini-LP with slip case and clear plastic poly bag, with art based on the

original LP picture sleeve.

The super group is composed of producer , rapper Del tha Funkee Homosapien and DJ and sometimes features guest artists who also take on varying futuristic pseudonyms. Originally released in 2000 on the now-defunct 75ARK record label, this Hip Hop concept album was released the same year as the ’ first 12” and is on a similar plane. Following the release of Deltron 3030, all three members participated in the Gorillaz’ self-titled debut album.

With Del aka Deltron Zero on vocals, Dan the Automator aka The Cantankerous Captain Aptos on production, and Kid Koala aka Skiznoid the Boy Wonder on turntables, this album takes the listener on a paranoid journey set in a dystopian year 3030 dealing with viruses, the apocalypse, an oppressive government, and a war waged against a huge company called the Corporate Bank of Time that rules the universe, all to the well-crafted and consistent musical backing of the Automator. Appearances by Damon Albarn (The Gorillaz, Blur), Prince Paul, Peanut Butter Wolf, DJ , Paul Barman, Mark Bell (Bjork, production), Sean Lennon, and Mr. Lif compliment Del’s vocal style and add the right amount of flavor to this classic period piece.
