SLY & ROBBIE - SHINE EYE GAL DUB (LIVE, 2005)

SLY & ROBBIE - SHINE EYE GAL DUB (LIVE, 2005)
Dubroom (DUB) Reggae Video Review




WWW, November 2007 - When Black Uhuru is not there to perform on the concert, Sly and Robbie will "simply" play a DUB version of the classic tune and it goes like this.

The horn blowers sing the chorus at the start, with Sly just playing the hi hat and the guitar playing the familiar hard rock style lick.

A mighty drum roll introduces a long part of stricktly Drum and Bass and (a little too much) synthesizer, which is only broken down to come back stronger throughout the entire 5 minutes and 7 seconds.

Every now and then, it gets a bit chaotic but hey, it's live and what the riddim twins lay down in this performance will be very, very hard to imitate even by the best of the best.

You could say, that they simply show why they are called the Riddim Twins!
