'Negrea Love Dub', originally released in 1978, is a cornerstone in the reggae dub scene.

‘Il Grande Esploratore’ represents one of the highest artistic peaks ever for Tony Esposito, a percussionist who grew up alongside musicians of the calibre of Pino Daniele, Alan Sorrenti and James Senese, and who in the early 1980s talentfully combined Mediterranean and Neapolitan sound sensations with electronic, ethnic, afrobeat and world music.
