I got it as a present, but i have to say i dont really like it. I guess maybe
my expectations where to high on this one cause i really enjoyed
previous releases like Ticklah's "Ticklah vs. Axelrod"album ect which
where more raw and had a big doze of Dub.. Imho also the original
Sgt.Peppers has not got the qualification to be a good dub album.. The
Dark side of the moon was perfect for that purpose and thats how they
made a "classic dub album" out of one of the best pink floyd records. I
dont know, maybe Beatles fans or pop/rock fans in general will like this
and maybe its just inapplicable to my personal taste. The only song i kind
of like is "Fixing a Hole" with Max Romeo.
