Ray Conniff - The Lost Dub Sessions (1977)

"Ray Conniff’s reggae phase is rarely mentioned by anyone outside of true Conniff aficionados. Conniff fans can’t figure out why the maestro abandoned his memorable melodies. Dub experts figure him for a lazy colonialist, abusing Jamaican rhythms for the sake of his white-bread harmonies. Everyone else regards it as an uninspired oddity...."

Ripping audio now....

Yes,it is very rare. I think the record company buried it shortly after it's release, perhaps due to it's marijuana laced sloppiness.

I'll post it shortly. While ripping vinyl I keep getting a nasty buzzing sound. Something not grounded properly.
