Our Take

If Peter Sellers and David Bowie had a love child who exclusively listened to dub reggae covers of British film soundtracks, it would sound something like "They Called Them Ghosts - The Great Movie Dubbers Singing British English." This album is a wacky, wonderful journey through the world of movie music, with a dub twist that will leave you scratching your head in the best way possible.

From the opening track, a skanking version of "Goldfinger" by a mysterious artist known only as The Shadowy Dubbers, to the surprisingly groovy rendition of "A Hard Day's Night" by The Dub Beatles, this album is chock full of surprising moments and unexpected delights. The dub treatment given to classics like "You Only Live Twice" and "Live and Let Die" gives them a fresh new sound that will have you dancing around the room in no time.

The stand out track on the album has to be "Shaft in Dub" by The Ghostly Players, a dubby take on the classic theme from the iconic blaxploitation film. The deep, throbbing bassline and choppy guitar licks are enough to transport you straight to a 1970s New York City nightclub, no time machine required.

Overall, "They Called Them Ghosts" is a must-listen for any fan of dub reggae or British film soundtracks. It's a quirky, fun ride that will leave you grinning from ear to ear. Don't be surprised if you find yourself humming these tunes long after the album has ended.
