Collie Weed: Best of Vol. 2 is a stunning retrospective of Horace Andy’s most iconic roots material recorded between 1973 and 1978, a golden era defined by his collaborations with the great King Tubby and producer Bunny Lee. Known for his haunting voice and spiritually charged lyrics, Horace Andy delivered deeply conscious roots music that resonated both in Jamaican ghettos and among UK sound systems.
This collection includes dub-inflected classics that highlight Tubby’s transformative mixing style—where vocals drift in and out of reverb-heavy soundscapes, creating a sense of meditation and resistance. The Clocktower Canada edition offers excellent audio clarity while preserving the gritty essence of original Channel One and King Tubby’s studio sessions.
The vinyl features King Tubby’s early dub work alongside one of roots reggae’s most legendary voices, and contains iconic tracks like “Collie Weed” that fueled the UK roots and dub scene.
An essential LP for vinyl collectors, dub selectors, and Horace Andy fans!
