To be fair, most of the reggae that Ali Campbell has made past the first UB40 album is pretty godawful, so I'd rather have that "dub rock" that Strummer played.revolutionrock_ wrote:[v][/v]

I think Strummer (The Clash) understood perfectly that they were a rock band playing reggae and that was the point. As for Ali Campbell some of his crimes against music are simply inexcusable.Wolter wrote:To be fair, most of the reggae that Ali Campbell has made past the first UB40 album is pretty godawful, so I'd rather have that "dub rock" that Strummer played.revolutionrock_ wrote:[v][/v]
