Dub Vendor is a long-standing, and pioneering, London vendor of ska and reggae music, that is now, mainly a London-based, mail order company specialising in Jamaican music. In 2006, Time Out termed it "the best source of Jamaican music in Europe". Founded by John MacGillivray and Chris Lane, Dub Vendor began life in 1976 as a market stall in London's Clapham Junction in response to the considerable lack of West Indian music at the time. Clapham Junction at that time was a poor inner suburb, and the surging population of immigrants from the West Indies made Battersea and nearby Brixton their new homes. The stall, and the shop that followed, were instant successes, and the second Dub Vendor store (or 'record shack' as it's known) opened four years later in Ladbroke Grove right next to the Underground station.
