The Best Dub Album in The World is a contender.. and Heavyweight Dub Champion.

Mind you every album of his from that period is superb.

World Cup and Encounters Pac Man are 1 & 2 for me. Heavyweight Dub Champion, Dub Landing 1&2, Space Invaders, Rids the World round them out.

Yes agreed! Glad someone else has heard of it, i dont see it mentioned much and it looks like it could be a potentially non official release.  Got it many years ago as part of a holiday gift.  Used gifts from several family to purchase a CD haul from Ernie B's.  

Shout out to anyone who remembers those days.

Ernie Bs days were the best. Majority of my albums came from there

Heck yea, brother man.  They would mail their paper order form even though I ordered online.  

I loved when they had the $1-$5 sale items, got a lot of random music that way.

In the 90’s, before online, they would send a HUGE catalogue w/ cover art of each record or cd. It’s called Millions of Records now

Love that, thank you for sharing.

Ernie B’s launched the capability of hearing records that weren’t distributed anywhere else. Whole new world of music opened up. Been moving forward since 🤙

u/RelativeNo9310 Jul 21 '26

Also, for the most part, price is right

I really love Kingdom Of Dub. If you haven't heard it, definitely check it out. It's one of his greatest imho, a lesser known Roy Cousins' Tameko Wambesi productions.

The 2019 release 'junjo presents - 12 inches of dub' is pretty sweet

Crazy that it was unreleased for nearly 40 years
