    Ten or so years after disbanding, The legendary Skatalites reconvened in 1975 at The Black Ark, Aquarius studios to record a handful of new tunes but not ska, but this brilliant deep meditative roots music, mixed at King Tubbys. Musicians included Lloyd Brevette, Lloyd Knibb, Ernest Ranglin, Roland Alphonso and Tommy McCook plus Augustus Pablo, Horsemouth and drummers from Ras Michael & The Sons Of Negus. Also in print is the mighty dub counterpart version LP "Herb Dub Collie Dub" Both include the killer percussive track "Fugitive" and it's mighty "Fugitive Dub" counterpart!
