"though the rythms on "on the other side of dub", are not fully realized dance hall, they do follow the template: redo some classic hits (in this case, studio one tracks) and add some updated lyrics. but don't be detracted; this album will shake your sound system. the lone ranger set the standard for jamaican djs heading into the 1980s. his lyrics sound fresh and inspired, and, over the rocking studio one tracks, help create an album that uniquely captures the transistion between the roots and dancehall styles. "barnabas collins" alone is worth the price of admission. the only potential downside is the straightforwardness of the dubs. but, hey, studio one rythms can always stand alone."
