Joe Gibbs Tribute

joe-gibbs-tribute-image01 I read yesterday on the Blood & Fire board that legendary reggae producer Joe Gibbs died of a heart attack last week. I thought it'd be nice to put together a short mix of my favourite Gibbs productions as a tribute:

MP3 Mix: Joe Gibbs Tribute (16mins, 22mb)

  1. Culture - Two Sevens Clash
  2. Bo Jangles - Prophecy Reveal
  3. Joe Gibbs & The Professionals - Prophecy Dub
  4. Culture - This Train
  5. Lady Ann - Informer
  6. Glen Washington - Rockers Nu Crackers
  7. Althea & Donna - Uptown Top Ranking
  8. Trinity - Three Piece Suit
  9. Eek A Mouse - Virgin Girl
  10. Queen Ifrica - Babylon Blunder (Rocky Gibbs)
  11. Capleton & Junior Reid - Forgive Them (Rocky Gibbs)
  12. Bascom X - Lonely Heart (Gibbo Records)
  13. I Wayne - Living In Love (Gibbo Records)

At the end I've also included productions by Joe's sons Carl aka Rocky Gibbs and Stephen aka Gibbo. It's good to see that he passed on his skills and talents to the younger generation. For more in-depth compilations of Joe Gibbs material, you should check this Algoriddim podcast or the Soul Jazz album.
