Judge Dread era un cantante reggae e ska inglese che ebbe fama negli anni '70, riuscendo a portare in classifica ben 11 brani. Il suo stile era particolare, molte canzoni con riferimenti vagamente sessuali, ma tutte con una vena spiccata di humor inglese, e mai volgari.
Divenne così famoso che suono in concerti con i The Wailers e Desmond Dekker.
Era anche un'ottimo scrittore di canzoni, tanto e' che Elvis Presley avrebbe dovuto incidere un suo pezzo nel natale del 1977 (Elvis moriì nell'agosto del 1977).
Alexander Minto Hughes, questo il nome di Judge Dread, morì nel 13 marzo 1998, all'etaà di 52 anni, mentre scendeva dal palco dopo una sua esibizione.

[Woman]: "Hello, what's your name?"
[Judge Dread]: "Dread"

[J.D.]: "Yes, that's right"
[W]: "Oh, I've always wanted to meet you"
[J.D.]: "Oh really, why?"
[W]: "Oh, I'm a really big fan of yours"
[J.D.]: "That's very nice of you to say that"
[W]: "Is It true?"
[J.D.]: "Is what true?"
[W]: "What they say about big nine"
[J.D.]: "Well, I think you'd better have a look for yourself"
[zipping noise]
[W]: "Oh, it's true, it's true! Come on Dread, get 'em off"
[J.D.]: "No, what do you take me for!"
[W]: "Come on, don't be shy"
[sighing]
[W]: "Now doesn't that feel better?"
[J.D.]: "Oh yes, those bloody boots were killing me!"
[W]: "Here, look at this"
[J.D.]: "Oh my god, I don't believe it!"
[W]: "Oh come on, touch it"
[J.D.]: "You must be bloody jokin', you're not even a proper woman! You're a geezer dressed up! Youre one of those Trans... What do they call 'em... Transvestites!"
[W, in a deep voice]: "Oh come on dear, this is 1975"
[J.D.]: "Oh I don't know, every time I come out, every bloody time, it always ends up in sillys!"
[W, in a deep voice]: "Come home and give me love please"
[J.D.]: "I'll tell you what, I'll give you bloody love! I'll give you the rough end of a pinapple! Go on, fuck off!"
[W, sobbing in a high voice]: "Nasty man you"
[J.D.]: "Away!"
[W]: "What?"
[J.D.]: "Take your soddy handbag with you!"
[W]: "And I'm not going to buy anymore of your records! Fuck off!"
