January 2007
A special guest set from Eric "The Ladies Love" Esposito (Greenville SC). Light and fun for the most part, this is one of the few Handpicked DUB sets recorded entirely from vinyl. Kicks off with Desmon Dekker, includes a dubbed up version of Bobby Babylon and closes with the classic Peter Tosh. Filled with excellent suprises...big ups Eric!

After feeling the heat from Eric E's January session, Selector23 mans the decks for his only all vinyl set of the Handpicked series. Big tunes from King Tubby, Scientist, Aggrovators, and more. A very consistent and solid feel through this whole ride, with a lot of emphasis on the lengthy and minimal...headspace meditation.

This time we go with a very radio friendly vocal approach. One of the strangest of the handpicked sets, there are moments when the cheese factor is almost unbearable, but buried in there are some absolute gems, including loved up fare from Tanya Stevens, Tamlins, Don Carlos and John Holt. By the end we somehow end up in spaced out territory, but still inna vocal style, featuring a blistering Kruder and Dorfmiester version of the classic Gregory Isaacs "Night Nurse", and a Fila Brazillia remix of "Climbing Up The Walls" from Radiohead. Take the whole ride for the payoff!

This is the LAW chapter 1! Eric Esposito and James G running back to back tunes, starting with some throwback biz and winding it down through a gamut of styles. Includes "Duke of Earl" dubbed into the stratosphere and some U-Roy round the mid point. Top tunes from the Greenville SC crew.
