Easy Star All-Stars – Ziggy Stardub (Vinyl)
Ziggy Stardub starts with a simple reggae drum rhythm fading in, couple of echo effects, a nifty fill, then in comes David Hinds of Steel Pulse singing, beautifully, “pushing through the market square / so many mothers sighing”.
It’s “Five Years,” kicking off their reggae take on the Bowie classic, Ziggy Stardust & the Spiders From Mars delivered straightforwardly in dub reggae style, no messing about, job done.
This has been the Easy Star All-Stars' jam for two decades now – Dub Side of the Moon, Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Dub Band, Radiodread and Thrillah each taking a classic album, delivering it from beginning to end in a mix of different reggae styles and a parade of well established and younger vocalists, lots of echo and heavy bass.
And it works. It works really well precisely because they’re so straightforward in their approach.

PRE-ORDERS
Flying Nun only debits your account for a pre-order when it has actually landed in our store. We believe this is fair because supply can often be unreliable - availability and release dates frequently change without notice. Pre-order with Flying Nun and you can cancel any time prior to the product arriving at our store.
OUT OF STOCK ITEMS
Flying Nun only make products available to purchase on our website when they are actually physically held at the store (except pre-orders). Vinyl availability from all local and international suppliers changes on a daily/hourly basis. Therefore, it is not possible to guarantee an online order for many items not currently held in stock.
SHIPPING
Flying Nun offers free shipping in Aotearoa New Zealand on orders over $80. We have record stores in both Auckland and Wellington and will ship your record from whichever store is nearest. We aim to pack send your order next business day. Pick ups are also available from both stores.
