Our Take
Our Take
Judge Dread, a name that strikes fear into the hearts of reggae lovers and skinheads alike, is back with a collection of his best skinhead reggae albums from the '70s. This clamshell reissue brings together classic tracks that will have you skanking and stomping all night long.
From the moment you press play, you can feel the energy and attitude oozing from every track. Judge Dread's booming voice commands your attention, while the infectious rhythms make it impossible not to move your feet. It's like a musical punch in the face, but in the best way possible.
Tracks like "Big Seven" and "Big Eight" showcase Judge Dread's ability to mix catchy melodies with gritty lyrics that touch on everything from politics to love to, of course, the good old-fashioned joys of a night out on the town with a pint in hand.
The production may be raw and stripped-back, but that just adds to the authenticity and charm of these albums. It's like being transported back in time to a smoky club filled with sweaty bodies and a sense of rebellion in the air.
So whether you're a die-hard skinhead reggae fan or just looking to add some extra spice to your music collection, Judge Dread's Skinhead Reggae Albums are a must-listen. Just be prepared to have these tunes stuck in your head for days on end.

About the artist
Judge Dread
The larger-than-life persona of the one and only Judge Dread, born Alexander Minto Hughes, left an indelible mark on the music scene with his unique blend of reggae, ska, and comedy. With a larger than life stage presence and a penchant for risque lyrics, Judge Dread took the music world by storm in the 1970s, becoming known as the King of Bawdy Songs. Armed with a quick wit and uncanny ability to blend cheeky humour with infectious beats, Judge Dread's music was as catchy as it was controversial. Tracks like "Big Six" and "Big Seven" propelled him to stardom, earning him a devoted following of fans who couldn't get enough of his raunchy lyrics and catchy melodies. Despite facing criticism for his explicit content, Judge Dread remained unapologetically himself, refusing to water down his music for the sake of political correctness. His rebellious spirit and irreverent attitude endeared him to legions of fans around the world, cementing his status as a true musical icon. Sadly, Judge Dread's career was cut short by his untimely death in 1998, but his legacy lives on through his timeless music and larger than life persona. With his colourful personality and boundary-pushing music, Judge Dread will forever be remembered as a trailblazer in the world of reggae and ska.
