LSP probably was a co-inventor of dub. At least three claims to that crown. As to why the coptic cross, well… lets just say he has his own special ologyism.

Sure do wish I coulda been at this show, the new Dubblestandart CD is full of good chunes.

I was there. The artists started late since they were stuck in traffic. Alpha did not take the stage til perhaps 5PM. So many people were turned away, since the venue was filled to capacity and there wear easily as many people in line to get in than there were already in Rumsey Playfield. Alpha B. did “Jerusalem”… long extended version… and the audience was cheering.

Interesting…

BTW, does anybody know why he’s holding up a Coptic cross?

Perry pretty much invented dub, anyway. The Original Ape lives…
