Where is the main thrust of dub coming from, Great Britain, Jamaica, the States, Europe? If it is from Jamaica, I have a good friend who lived in Jamaica and married a Jamaican, they maybe able to turn me on to some good info about dub, No Problem Mon!! I've often heard of 'ska' and thought it referred to the style of music that the English Beat started out playing, but lately I've heard some people refer to early Marley and the Wailers as being ska. Is anyone knowledgable on what ska really is? Rando, Hail Selassie I
