Dub For The Meek\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe unsung hero's in the History of Jamaican music can be traced back to the musicians who cut the thousands upon thousands of tracks that we know and love today. Each producer or studio in Kingston town, Jamaica, would use their own group of musicians that they favoured. In some cases the musicians would overlap and be involved in more than one project at the same time. A prime example of this would be the two bands The Professionals and The Aggrovators.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe same pool of musicians in this case would include: Carlton 'Santa' Davis, Carlton Barrett (Drums), Robbie Shakespeare, Aston 'Family Man' Barrett, Lloyd Parks (Bass). Earl 'Chinna' Smith (Lead guitar), Tony Chin, Winston 'Bo Beep' (Rhythm Guitar). Ansel Collins (Piano), Bernard 'Touter' Harvey, Winston Wright (Organ). The mighty horn section could at any time consist of, Bobby Ellis (Trumpet), Vin Gordon (Trombone). Tommy McCook (Tenor Saxophone) and Lennox Brown (Alto Saxophone). When Joe Gibbs recorded his sessions the set of players would go under the guise of The Professionals and when producer Bunny Lee hired the group it  would be called The Aggrovators.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJoe 'Joel' Gibbs (b.1945) moved to Kingston Town around 1962. His vast knowledge of electronics lead to the opening of his first shop selling and repairing Radio \u0026amp; Television sets. Its location happened to be opposite Leslie Kong's Beverley's Ice Cream Parlour \u0026amp; Record Store, and on noticing the draw Leslie's shop was getting from the record buying public, it seemed only natural to follow suit. Working alongside singer Roy Shirley now as a producer Joe  would meet up with fellow entrepreneur Bunny Lee and a friendship\/working relationship was born.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Jamaican Recordings","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":34955547934876,"sku":"JRCD 026","price":11.7,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/products\/008.jpg?v=1594218444"},{"product_id":"dynamic-dubbing-at-dynamic-sounds","title":"Dynamic - Dubbing At Dynamic Sounds","description":"CATALOGUE NO.

It was the first state of the art studio built in Kingston, Jamaica and a firm favourite with all the topflight homespun artists. Bob Marley chose to record the bulk of his seminal 'Catch A Fire' album there and many foreign musicians trying to catch some of that reggae magic and emulate that sound have beaten a path to it's doors. As you will see the studio had a history already of it's own, that was carved out before it became the aptly named Dynamic Sounds.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOriginally named WIRL Studio's (West Indies Records Limited), it was set up initially to record Jamaica's versions of the American Rhythm and Blues tunes that were proving so popular  on the island. It was started back in 1958 by Political leader Edward Seaga an astute businessman, who had many interests around the island including clubs and bars. As the R \u0026amp; B music evolved into its own styles from Mento into Ska, one of its main protagonists Byron Lee and his band the Dragonaires would be at the forefront and be seen as ambassadors to the cause. Edward Seaga would choose the band to head the 1964 World’s Fair and take them to New York to showcase the Jamaican Ska Music. His political ambitions leading the American friendly JLP (Jamaican Labour Party) against the Cuban inspired PNP (People's National Party), would see him cutting back his other interests and lead to the selling of WIRL, lock stock and barrel to Byron Lee. On taking over the business he renamed it Dynamic Sounds and extended it to include not only a top of the range recording studio but a pressing plant to\u003cbr\u003edistribute the new hot sounds of the day directly to the streets of Jamaica. The address would also change to 15 Bell Road, it's old address No 13, seemingly too unlucky for such a fine establishment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe studio has become part of the Jamaican culture and each twist and turn in its musical story has been caught and recorded here. We get on board when the music had slowed down to the reggae skank that we now know and love. We have picked some fine cuts that we feel best represent the times. The rhythms are pushed to the fore and the great Sylvan Morris a much-underrated studio master, always came up with some interesting effects to enhance the version cuts. A fine time in reggae's history caught at one of Jamaica's finest studios.

These early versions tried and tested on his sound system went down so well that he invested in a four track mixing console, that was being sold from Dynamic Studios in Kingston. With his vast knowledge of electric’s, he rewired the existing console with delay echo effects, sliders and phasing units and so began King Tubby’s Studio Of Dub at 18 Drummlie Avenue, Kingston 11, Jamaica...

He took the humble melodica a wind blown mouth keyboard and made it shine.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHis musical journey started one sunny day in 1969. Walking into Herman Chin- loy's Aquarius Records shop and on playing his melodica so impressed its owner that he was taken off to Randy's Studio 17, the very next day to cut his first record 'Iggy Iggy'. But it was his second tune under the guidance of Clive Chin again cut at Randy's, the seminal 'Java ' that put the young Augustus Pablo on the map. Clive Chin continued his work producing Pablo's debut album 'THIS IS AUGUSTUS PABLO' . An instrumental affair on which the neo-mystical ''Far East'' sound synonymous with Pablo's work emerged.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHaving worked with most of the top producers of the time,Lee Perry,Keith Hudson, Bunny Lee, Augustus decided to set up his own label \"Rockers\", named after his brothers sound system. Where many of his tunes would first be heard.The label came to define a new and exciting chapter in reggae history.Even when versioning acknowledged classic Studio One rhythms there was a precious maturity and depth to Pablo's productions that kept him at the top throughout the late 1970s and into the 1980s.

Their set up included a pressing plant and label printing shop, everything they would need to begin recording, pressing and distributing some of the finest reggae around. By 1976 they would also have an in- house session band named THE REVOLUTIONARIES. Built around drummer Sly Dunbar and bassist Robbie Shakespeare the band featured at various times fellow Kingston musicians Earl ‘Wire’ Lindo, Rad Bryan, Ansell Collins, Lloyd Parks, Uziah ‘Sticky’ Thompson, Barnabus, Bo peep, Errol ’Tarzan’ Nelsen and Skully Sims. The band evolved from the resident group that played in Kingstons ‘Tit for Tat ‘Club, named Skin Flesh \u0026amp; Bones with whom Sly Dunbar played drums with. Everything fell into place when they backed The Mighty Diamonds classic 1976 set ‘Right Time’. The album offered fresh new Rockers rhythms to the reggae world.This militant double drumming style dominated the music scene from 1975-1978. It’s from this period that this set of classic unreleased dubs came from. Channel 1 sessions that the great Bunny ‘striker’ Lee produced.

Many of the tracks you know and love from the 1970's Reggae scene probably featured this group of musicians in some shape or form. The band were put together by Bunny 'Striker' Lee one of Jamaica's formidable producers, who with no studio of his own had to rely on buying studio time from the existing establishments, such as Randy's Studio 17 and the Hookim brothers Channel 1. This was an expensive task and he needed a pool of top musicians who could cut tracks quickly and efficiently. Built around the cream of Jamaica's musicians namely; Carlton 'Santa' Davis, Carlton Barrett [Drums], Robbie Shakespeare, Aston 'Family man' Barrett, Lloyd Parks [Bass], Earl 'Chinna' Smith [ lead guitar ], Tony Chin, Winston 'Bo Beep' Bowen [Rhythm Guitar] Ansel Collins [Piano], Bernard ' touter' Harvey, Winston Wright [ Organ ], Bobby Ellis [Trumpet], Vin Gordon [Trombone], Tommy McCook [Tenor Saxophone ] and Lennox Brown [ Alto Saxophone ]. Vocal duties would usually feature two of Bunny Lee's favourite singers Johnny Clarke and Cornell Campbell who would also fill in if the need arise on Piano and rhythm guitar respectively. The forward looking Mr Lee was inspired by the English music scenes interest in reggae especially the skinhead cultures adoption of all things ska-ish. So much so that he called his reggae shop \/ label 'Agro Sounds' after the skinhead term for fighting \/ trouble..'Agro'. Later when looking for a suitable name for his group what else could it be....THE AGGROVATORS were born. Mr Coxsone Dodd's STUDIO ONE opened its doors in 1963 at 13 Brenford Road Kingston, Jamaica, it would become the name for all his future productions. Coxsone Dodd started out with one of the first Sound Systems in Jamaica, called Sir Coxsone The Downbeat, importing American R \u0026amp; B records to fill his dances. A lack of supply of new \/ original material which is very important to sound system supremacy would lead him during the 1950's to produce Jamaican hits of his own. The Studio One set up would allow the opportunity to experiment and fine tune these recordings. It became a hit factory releasing songs like Alton Ellis's 'I'm just a guy', ' live and learn', Delroy Wilson's 'Dancing mood', 'Riding for a fall', 'Rain from the skies' and Larry Marshall's 'Mean Girl' to name but a few. Versions of which feature on this collection. The updating of Studio One classics which in some cases were reworkings of American R \u0026amp; B tunes [ 'foreign tunes' as they were known in Jamaica ], was common practice. The rhythms were much loved favourites and with the added incentive that the musicians knew the tracks inside out. This set of dubs are straight from the master tapes of such sessions orchestrated by the man Bunny Lee himself, no one knew better ...you can't keep a good tune down never mind a great one.

Many people passed through it's doors to cut music, Burning Spear, The Heptones and Augustus Pablo to name but a few, and it was no accident that Bob Marley chose to record his first four albums for Island Records here. The timeless 'Catch a Fire' ,'Burnin' , 'Natty Dread' and 'Rastaman Vibration', all came under it's spell. Harry Johnson, born 1945 Kingston, Jamaica, began his career as a musician playing bass with a group called The Virtues. The band would soon fall apart but it was as their manager that he got a taste for the business side, and his first session as a producer came around in 1968 cutting 'No More Heartaches' for The Beltones at Studio 1. But it was another track also cut at Studio 1 under his tutelage Lloyd Robinson's 'Cuss Cuss' that gave him his first hit single. The success of which would launch his Harry J imprint label, and inspire him to recruit the cream of Jamaica's session musicians. Including the mighty Winston Wright on keyboards and Boris Gardiner on bass to form the Harry J All Stars group. This line up would go on to have crossover hits with such classics as 'Liquidator' in 1969,and his 1970's production of Bob \u0026amp; Marcia's 'Young Gifted \u0026amp; Black' which reached No 5 in the U.K. charts. In 1972 using again money made from his hits and selling his record store, Harry Johnson brought a 16 track mixing desk and so was born HARRY J's Recording Studio.The other important happening around this time was the arrival of Sylvan Morris as recording engineer to replace Sid Bucknor who was moving to England.Harry Johnson had already worked with Sylvan at Studio 1 where he was house engineer and had been mainly responsible for it's distinctive sound. On his arrival Sylvan would cut the Version sides to many of the Artists \/ Producers tracks cut at Harry J's and again establishing a great sound for the new studio. He even found time to cut a couple of dub albums himself, 'Morris in Dub' and 'Cultural Dub’, where he re-versioned some classic cuts from his Studio 1 days. Harry J's was the studio of the moment to cut tracks especially dub cuts. Keith Hudson recorded his classic 1974 'Pick A Dub' album here with the Barrett brothers, Aston 'Family Man' and Carlton, from Bob Marley's Wailers band providing the deconstructed backbone of bass and drums respectfully. We have selected some interesting cuts to show the versatility of the studio and what it was capable of producing. A wide cross section covering some rare John Holt dubs to some obscure cuts like Monty Morrison's 'Love you Only' and even the great Jackie Bernard of The Kingstonian's features on some of his long lost dubs lost until now. The studio is still running today and has branched out to include it's Jamaican distribution arm 'Sunset'. But we hope bringing you back to those glorious days when it all started, will relive a classic time in Jamaican Dub History for you. What shines out on this selection we believe, are some great soulful roots cuts.... \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRespect Jah Floyd.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTracklisting\u003cbr\u003eTRACK 1 EVERY DUB IS A STAR \u003cbr\u003eTRACK 2 DUB IS YET TO COME\u003cbr\u003eTRACK 3 FROM MAN TO DUB\u003cbr\u003eTRACK 4 DUB SCRIPTURES\u003cbr\u003eTRACK 5 HARMONICA DUB\u003cbr\u003eTRACK 6 DUB IN THE STREETS\u003cbr\u003eTRACK 7 LET DUB DOWN\u003cbr\u003eTRACK 8 BAG-FULL-A-DUB\u003cbr\u003eTRACK 9 DUB TO BABYLONIANS HEAD \u003cbr\u003eTRACK 10 DUB YOU ONLY\u003cbr\u003eTRACK 11 NO MAIL NO DUB\u003cbr\u003eTRACK 12 NONE SHALL ESCAPE THE DUBMENT\u003cbr\u003eTRACK 13 DUB ME SMOOTHLY*\u003cbr\u003eTRACK 14 MAN NEEDS A DUB*\u003cbr\u003e*CD BONUS TRACK\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"JAMAICAN RECORDINGS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":35897238159516,"sku":"JRCD009","price":13.28,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/products\/VariousArtists-DubbingAtHarryJ_s_1972_1975.jpg?v=1599539583"},{"product_id":"mal-one-430-kinds-road-punk-meets-rock-n-roll","title":"Mal-One - 430 Kinds Road (Punk meets Rock 'n' Roll)","description":"Genre: PUNK\/DUB\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFormat: 7’’\u003cbr\u003eCatalogue NO.: MAL-ONE-003\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eB\/C: 5060135762919\u003cbr\u003eRelease Date: 6th November 2020\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePunk artist Mal-One latest single tells the story of Malcolm Mclaren and vivienne westwoods’s 430 kings road emporium.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHow malcolm acquired the remises and transformation from it’s rock’n’roll origins ‘let it rock’, ‘too fast to live to young to die’ through to its development as ‘sex’ and ‘seditionaires’, which was the centre of the punk storm.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAll in 2 minutes and thirty seven seconds.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIt also ties in with the publishing of mal-one’s book;\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWorlds end- sex pistols\/ mclaren\/ westwood \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eA chronology 1971-1978\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTracklisting\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eA side 430 kings road (punk meets rock’n’roll)\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eB side kings road version\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e","brand":"Jamaican Recordings","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36347054260380,"sku":"MAL-ONE-003","price":6.03,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/products\/Mal-One-430KindsRoad_PunkmeetsRock_n_Roll.jpg?v=1601959339"},{"product_id":"leroy-smart-mr-smart-in-dub","title":"LEROY SMART - Mr Smart In Dub","description":"Genre: Dub Reggae\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFormat: LP\u003cbr\u003eCatalogue No.: JRLP020\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eB\/C 5036848002482\u003cbr\u003eRelease Date: 4th December 2020\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLeroy Smart the self-proclaimed ‘Don’, carries much respect in the Jamaican musical community.

Although several musicians crossed over into different named bands. For example, a set of players working with Producer Bunny 'Striker' Lee would go under the guise of The Aggrovators. The same group working with Producer Joe Gibbs would work under the name The Professionals. Soul Syndicate were the band of choice for Producer Niney the Observer, who used them for his own recordings and when you put that aside the other artists Niney produced, Dennis Brown, Max Romeo, Michael Rose, I Roy, The Ethiopians, Barry Brown, Gregory Issacs and Freddie McGregor. To name a few and not necessary all, you begin to see the amount of material this set of musicians played on.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBuilt around the rhythm section of Calton 'Santa' Davis and George 'Fully' Fullwood, drums and bass respectfully. They were usually accompanied by Earl 'Chinna' Smith, Tony Chin on guitars, Keith Sterling, Gladstone 'Gladdy' Anderstone, Bernard 'Touter' Harvey, organ\/keyboards and Noel 'Skully' Simms, percussion. Niney's tracks tended to be rhythm heavy and thus Sound System favourites.But when brass was needed\/called for ,this was provided by the likes of Tommy McCook, Bobby Ellis, Felix ' Deadley Headley' Bennett. Niney not having a studio of his own at the time used most of Kingston's studios, again availability and money providing. But most of these cuts\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eselected for this release were cut at Channel 1 and a few exceptions at Randy's Studio 17 and at Joe Gibbs studio at Burns Avenue.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eNiney also worked closely with King Tubby on his dub plates, so tracks after the recording sessions were taken to King Tubbys for reconstruction and sometimes\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ere-voicing over an existing rhythm. These were then used as version sides to the vocal cuts, but most importantly used to nice up the dances, being played out on King Tubbys Hometown Hi-Fi Sound System. We have pulled together a selection of such dub plate specials cut by the Soul Syndicate band for this release. Dub sides that emphasise how well the band worked together, and with Niney at the reigns and the added bonus of some Tubby magic sprinkled on top.

His rootsy yet soulful voice have been in demand by many of Jamaica's producers, and have graced their catalogues over the decades, yet outside of the close reggae circles he has remained a closely guarded secret.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBorn Ronnie Davis, in 1950 (Savannah La Mar, Jamaica). His singing career began in the 1960's and like many aspiring young singers, the Talent contests taking part around the Island, was his first introduction to the music scene. This led to him joining the vocal group, 'The Tenors'. Who shortly after his arrival, released their debut 'The Whole World is a Stage'. This was the beginning of a run of Jamaican 7'' releases that did quite well in the domestic marketplace. But Ronnie had set his sights on a solo career,which came to fruition in the early 1970's, with two big hits for him in the guise of 'Won't You Come Home' and 'Stop Yu Loofing'. Running on through to the mid 1970's with such hits as 'Jah Jah Jehovah','Forget Me Now', 'On and On' and 'Babylon Falling'. Building up to the 1976 classic, 'It's Raining'.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAround this time Ronnie's path would cross with Keith Porter and with his childhood friend Roy Smith they would form one of Jamaica's foremost vocal groups 'The Itals'. A group who would run until the 1990's and evolve into 'Ronnie Davis and Idren'. Ronnie's releases are very sort after among the reggae aficionados and any tune carrying his vocal talents rarely\u003cbr\u003edisappoint. We have compiled some rare roots dubs to many of his finest cuts. Such gems as 'Chasing You', 'What You See is What You Get', his take on the timeless cut 'Tribal War', 'Tell You' and the a fore mentioned smash 'It's Raining'. A version of Gregory Issac's 'Love Overdue' is also present. Ronnie cut an album worth of material with Mr Issac's, testimony surely to Mr Davis's standing in the Reggae community.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLet’s hope that this release spreads the gospel according to Mr R.

It was the first state of the art studio built in Kingston, Jamaica and a firm favourite with all the topflight homespun artists. Bob Marley chose to record the bulk of his seminal 'Catch A Fire' album there and many foreign musicians trying to catch some of that reggae magic and emulate that sound have beaten a path to its doors. As you will see the studio had a history already of its own, that was carved out before it became the aptly named Dynamic Sounds.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOriginally named WIRL Studio's (West Indies Records Limited), it was set up initially to record Jamaica's versions of the American Rhythm and Blues tunes that were proving so popular on the island. It was started back in 1958 by Political leader Edward Seaga an astute businessman, who had many interests around the island including clubs and bars. As the R \u0026amp; B music evolved into its own styles from Mento into Ska, one of its main protagonists Byron Lee and his band the Dragonaires would be at the forefront and be seen as ambassadors to the cause. Edward Seaga would choose the band to head the 1964 World’s Fair and take them to New York to showcase the Jamaican Ska Music. His political ambitions leading the American friendly JLP (Jamaican Labour Party) against the Cuban inspired PNP (People's National Party), would see him cutting back his other interests and lead to the selling of WIRL, lock stock and barrel to Byron Lee. On taking over the business he renamed it Dynamic Sounds and extended it to include not only a top of the range recording studio but a pressing plant to distribute the new hot sounds of the day directly to the streets of Jamaica. The address would also change to 15 Bell Road, it's old address No 13, seemingly too unlucky for such a fine establishment.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe studio has become part of the Jamaican culture and each twist and turn in its musical story has been caught and recorded here. We get on board when the music had slowed down to the reggae skank that we now know and love. We have picked some fine cuts that we feel best represent the times. The rhythms are pushed to the fore and the great Sylvan Morris a much-underrated studio master, always came up with some interesting effects to enhance the version cuts.

But it was Clancy Eccles next releases with a certain U Roy (Ewart Beckfort) in the same year that saw the style explode.

After discovering a mistake that made a ‘serious joke’ ( more of which later...) they went on to release the first pressings of this new musical genre namely ‘Dub Music’. Tubby’s vast knowledge of electronics and Bunny’s vast catalogue of rhythms would lay the foundations of what today is taken as a standard... the Remix \/ Version cuts to an existing vocal tune. Osbourne ‘King Tubby’ Ruddock was born in Kingston, Jamaica on 28th January 1941 and grew up in the High Holborn Street area of downtown Kingston. He studied electronics at Kingston’s National Technical College and also on two correspondence courses from the U.S.A... When he had qualified Tubby began repairing radios and other electrical appliances in a shack in the back yard of his mother’s home. His work in the early days included winding transformers and building amplifiers for Kingston’s Sound Systems. Tubby built his first Sound System in 1957 playing jazz and Rhythm \u0026amp; Blues at local weddings and birthday parties. His reputation as a man who knew and understood both electronics and music grew steadily and as the sixties drew to a close. Tubby purchased his own basic two track equipment. He installed this alongside his dub cutting machine, a home made mixing console and his impressive collection of Jazz albums in the back bedroom of his home at 18 Dromilly Avenue which he christened his music room. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Tubby and Striker were at Treasure Isle Studio’s one day while Ruddy from Spanish Town was working with the engineer Byron Smith.... “Tubby and myself was talking when Ruddy was cutting some dub but Smithy (engineer) made a mistake through we were talking and forgot to put in the voice. It was two track recording in those days. Ruddy said ‘No Man! Make it stay! and so they cut the rhythm. When I went over to Ruddy’s that Saturday night a dance was in progress and when they played the vocal to the tune... then he said we’re going to play ‘Part Two’. They never called it ‘Version’..and then he played the rhythm track. The song was a catchy song and everybody started to sing along and the deejay started to toast so everything went down well. On Monday morning I went up and I said ‘Tubbs the mistake we made was a serious joke.It mash up Spanish Town! The people went wild. So you have to start to do that now ‘cause when the man put on the ‘Part Two’ everyone start singing this song. It played about twenty times. I said you try Tubbs!’...Well the next Saturday night now when Tubby strung up down the farm U Roy said he’s going to play ‘Part Two’ but Tubby did it different now. He started with the voice then dropped it out and let the rhythm run and then he brought in the voice in the middle and from there Tubby started to get really popular.’’ Bunny ‘Striker’ Lee \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDynamic Sounds upgraded to sixteen track recording in 1972 and Tubby purchased, again with the help of a deal brokered by Bunny Lee. The old four track equipment and the MCI console from their Studio B. The four tracks now gave him far wider scope to work with and he began to create a new musical form where the bass and drum parts were brought up while the faders allowed Tubby to ease the vocal and rhythm in and out of the mix. It was only a matter of time before Tubby’s dub plate experiments began to make it on to vinyl and the first ever long-playing King Tubby releases would feature a collection of his mixes to a selection of Strikers rhythms. So please sit back and enjoy this historic set of sounds. Lovingly restored and with a few extra gems added to the CD Editions. These releases were the first to carry the name of King Tubby and the first to credit the great musicians that contributed so much to the rhythms that made these albums possible.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTracklisting\u003cbr\u003eTRACK 1 NATTY DUB \u003cbr\u003eTRACK 2 LEE’S DUB \u003cbr\u003eTRACK 3 WONDER WHY DUB \u003cbr\u003eTRACK 4 I’M GONE DUB \u003cbr\u003eTRACK 5 COUNTRY BOY DUB \u003cbr\u003eTRACK 6 TRUE BELIEVER DUB \u003cbr\u003eTRACK 7 CAREFREE DUB \u003cbr\u003eTRACK 8 RASTA TRAIN DUB\u003cbr\u003eTRACK 9 MOVE OUT OF BABYLON DUB \u003cbr\u003eTRACK 10 GIVE A LITTLE MAN A GREAT BIG HAND DUB \u003cbr\u003eTRACK 11 FEEL SO GOOD DUB \u003cbr\u003eTRACK 12 FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE DUB \u003cbr\u003eTRACK 13 WHEN WILL I FIND MY WAY DUB\u003cbr\u003eTRACK 14 I’M LEAVING DUB \u003cbr\u003eTRACK 15 FEEL LOST DUB\u003cbr\u003eTRACK 16 DAWN DUB\u003cbr\u003eTRACK 17 DON’T CUT OFF YOUR DUB*\u003cbr\u003eTRACK 18 A ROUGHER VERSION*\u003cbr\u003e*CD BONUS TRACK\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jamaican Recordings","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36751136325788,"sku":"JRLP038","price":16.13,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/products\/KingTubbyAndTheAggrovators-ShalomDub_c5009b99-5c18-4a58-9072-d1b52195b722.jpg?v=1604577895"},{"product_id":"horace-andy-dub-box-rare-dubs-1973-1976-lp","title":"Horace Andy - Dub Box Rare Dubs 1973-1976 [LP]","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGenre: Dub Reggae\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFormat: LP\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCatalogue No.: JRLP007\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eB\/C: 5036848001256\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRelease Date: 29 Jul 22 (back in)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBack in: 17 May 2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHorace Andy [a.k.a.Sleepy] must process one of the sweetest and most distinctive voices in reggae music. 1951 in Kingston Jamaica. He cut his first track in 1966 for producer George ‘Phil’ Pratt, a tune called ‘Black Man’s Country’. But it was four years later his star really began to shine when he joined the stable of Clement ‘Coxsone’ Dodd’s Studio One. It was Coxsone Dodd who renamed him Andy after another of his leading artists Bob Andy, such was his belief in Horace’s writing talent and singing abilities. Still only twenty years of age Horace used his falsetto talent to the fore and cut some impressive tracks at 13 Brentford Road, Studio One’s headquarters. Such reggae standards as ’Skylarking’, ‘Just Say Who’, ‘Love of a Women’ and ‘Something on my Mind’ to name but a few. The early 1970’s saw Horace due to political reasons move on to work with producer Bunny Lee, a move that suited his talents and beliefs, Horace being an early advocate to the Rastafarian faith.The tracks which he cut with Bunny, which we concentrate on here gave his songs a rootsy feel. The rhythms often cut at Channel ONE and Randy’s Studio17 and finalised at King Tubby’s, provided a fine backbone for Horace to recut some of his earlier classics, along side his newer songs also to become reggae standards. Like ‘Money Money’, ‘Zion Gate’ the great ‘You are my Angel’ and a version of The Heptones ‘My Guiding Star’. The power of these recordings were such that the earlier tracks like ‘Skylarking’ became hits a second time around.Proving that the ‘you can’t keep a good tune down’ mantra was alive and kicking… …A golden time for Horace and Reggae music in general… Horace would go on to work with other producers like Everton Da Silva in 1977 creating the ‘In the Light’ album and the New York based Lloyd ‘Wackies’ Barnes in the 1980’s for his ‘Dancehall Style’ recordings. Most recently his work with Massive Attack has brought his majestic voice full circle and back into the arena once more. Those ‘Massive’ recordings and this dub collection here seem to fit side by side. Horace’s distinctive vocal riding over the rhythms adding a magic as only he can .....\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRESPECT JAH FLOYD.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTracklisting\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTRACK 1 WHY OH WHY DUB \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTRACK 2 DUB LARKING \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTRACK 3 ZION DUB \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTRACK 4 DUB MONEY \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTRACK 5 A TRUE DUB \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTRACK 6 DUB GUIDANCE \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTRACK 7 DUB SAY WHO \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTRACK 8 DUB ON MY MIND \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTRACK 9 LOVE OF A DUB BAND \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTRACK 10 USE THIS DUB \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTRACK 11 DUB LETTER \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTRACK 12 DUB ANGEL \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTRACK 13 BLESS THIS DUB*\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTRACK 14 DUB AH FULFIL*\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e*CD BONUS TRACK\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"JAMAICAN RECORDINGS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36777642852508,"sku":"LP007","price":15.28,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/products\/HoraceAndy-DubBox_RareDubs1973-1976_98103f1d-3dea-4f57-95cc-78c642230a3f.jpg?v=1604835496"},{"product_id":"channel-one-presents-100-tons-of-dub","title":"Channel One Presents - 100 Tons Of Dub","description":"\u003cp\u003eFormat: LP\u003cbr\u003eCatalogue No.: JRLP034 \u003cbr\u003eBarcode: 5060135760373\u003cbr\u003eRelease Date: 19 Jun 2026\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Reggae Vocal\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe mighty Channel One Studios,Kingston, Jamaica, has its place set in Reggae's Musical History.Its distinctive sound the studio created on opening its doors in 1972 to its closure in the early 1980's made it the Producers, Singers and Musicians studio of choice during this furtive period. Achieving that vibe and clarity, separated it from the other Kingston establishments. Run by the Hookim Family's four sons, Jo Jo the eldest followed by Paulie, Ernest and Kenneth. Their father originally came from China and married a Chinese Jamaican lady and settled in the St Andrews district before moving to Kingston Town itself. The family business was built on jukeboxes and one armed bandit machines in and around Kingston. A lucrative venture until the gaming laws changed in 1970, outlawing the gaming machines. So the music side of the business would have to be expanded. So it was decided to open a studio to make the music to supply their already established Jukebox enterprise. The four brothers opened Channel One Recording Studios in 1972 at 29 Maxfield Avenue, Kingston 13. Initially as we stated the purpose of the studio was for the brothers use only, but this would soon change when the various Producers all looking for that Channel One sound came asking for studio time. The brothers had used the services of Bill Garnet a renowned and well respected technical engineer on setting up the studio. They spent a lot of time aying out the space to get the right acoustics and picking the right equipment. They went with a four track API desk and the best quality microphones such as Neuman, Sony and AKG, vital in obtaining the quality sound and track separation that would prove so worthwhile after the music was recorded to give the best flexibility on the final mix downs. Jo Jo would take over the production duties after the initial hiring of Syd Bucknor a producer who had worked closely with Coxonne Dodds Studio 1 stable. The first release on the Channel One label would be 'Don't Give Up The Fight' by Stranger Cole and Gladstone 'Gladdy' Anderson.The initial two thousand run being swallowed up by their Jukebox interests and so the steady flow of hits would run up to the brake through hit of 1975 'Right Time' by  the Mighty Diamonds. 1977 saw Jo Jo extending his stays in New York to a semipermanent status, returning mainly to oversee recording sessions and then taking the results back to America for worldwide distribution. His brother Paulies senseless killing in that year also added to Jo Jo's decision to spend more time with his Hit Bound Manufacturing set up in New York. The Channel One studio would be upgraded in 1979 to sixteen tracks and although Jo Jo and Ernest still covered the mixing and engineering duties Kenneth would now supervise sessions. An often untold part of Channel Ones history is the involvement of Producer Niney The Observer. The mid to late 1970's were heavy times both musically and politically and Maxfield Avenue was in the heart of this crossfire. Some artists and musicians were weary of using the establishment especially when sessions ended late at night and exiting the studio at these times could be somewhat dangerous. But Niney's fearlessness seen him over running and in many cases running the all night sessions with his trusted set of musicians loosely called The Soul Syndicate. Having the run of the mighty Channel One studio's allowed Niney to build up and work on a stockpile of rhythms that he still has yet to unleash on the world. We have been lucky to select a bunch of material from Niney's vaults for this release. Some great unreleased rhythms and some different cuts to some tracks you might already know. Niney's work with Dennis Brown and his own distinctive heavy roots style productions have been documented and indeed his work on Channel Ones Yellowman releases stand tall also. We hope this fine set of Niney Productions set inside the hollowed walls of Channel One will sit beside them as they so richly deserve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTrack listing\u003cbr\u003eSide One\u003cbr\u003e1.

King Tubby always added something a little special to the tracks he worked on. Producers would often bring their already recorded tracks to his home studio at 18 Drummlie Avenue in the Kingston district of Waterhouse. The backing tracks which were laid at various other studios around Kingston. Like Channel 1and Randy's Studio 17, would then be voiced\/Re-voiced at King Tubby's.

Lost cuts to some of his own tracks like 'First Street Rock', alongside productions he undertook with the great Prince Allah, Junior Ross and the Spears.

Scientist (b.Overton Brownie,1960, Jamaica) and the Crazy Mad Professor (not to be confused with the London based Mad Professor, Neil Frazer , Ariwa Sounds) initially both helped King Tubby (b.

It also proved a fantastic outlet for the Dub Plate Specials cut at Tubby’s studio, providing exclusive cuts to be played out and to intice the dance’s audience. The tracks at the time were mainly cut over producer Bunny ’Striker’ Lee rhythms, that Bunny stored at Tubby’s studio which was in fact his home, 18 Drumilly Avenue,Kingston, Jamaica.The versions were given exclusive plays at Tubby’s sound before some finding their way on to vinyl, as the b-side version cut to it’s a-side vocal, proving so popular that the records were often brought for its version side over its vocal counterpart. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eKing Tubby and Producer Bunny ‘Striker’ Lee are intertwined in the birth of Dub Music, after discovering a mistake that made a ‘serious joke’ (more of which later...) they went on to release the first pressings of this new musical genre namely ‘Dub Music’. Tubby’s vast knowledge of electronics and Bunny’s vast catalogue of rhythms would lay the foundations of what today is taken as a standard... the Remix \/ Version cuts to an existing vocal tune. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOsbourne ‘King Tubby’ Ruddock was born in Kingston, Jamaica on 28th January 1941 and grew up in the High Holborn Street area of downtown Kingston. He studied electronics at Kingston’s National Technical College and on two correspondence courses from the U.S.A... When he had qualified Tubby began repairing radios and other electrical appliances in a shack in the back yard of his mother’s home. His work in the early days included winding transformers and building amplifiers for Kingston’s Sound Systems. Tubby built his first Sound System in 1957 playing jazz and rhythm \u0026amp; blues at local weddings and birthday parties. His reputation as a man who knew and understood both electronics and music grew steadily and as the sixties drew to a close.Tubby purchased his own basic two track equipment. He installed this alongside his dub cutting machine, a homemade mixing console and his impressivecollection of Jazz albums in the back bedroom of his home at 18 Dromilly Avenue which he christened his music room. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTubby and Striker were at Treasure Isle Studio’s one day while Ruddy from Spanish Town was working with the engineer Byron Smith.... \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e“Tubby and myself was talking when Ruddy was cutting some dub but Smithy (engineer) made a mistake through we were talking and forgot to put in the voice. It was two track recording in those days. Ruddy said ‘No Man! Make it stay! and so they cut the rhythm. When I went over to Ruddy’s that Saturday night a dance was in progress and when they played the vocal to the tune... then he said we’re going to play ‘Part Two’. They never called it ‘Version’.. and then he played the rhythm track.The song was a catchy song and everybody started to sing along and the deejay started to toast so everything went down well. On Monday morning I went up and I said ‘‘Tubbs the mistake we made was a serious joke. It mash up Spanish Town! The people went wild. So, you have to start to do that now ‘cause when the man put on the ‘Part Two’ everyone start singing this song. It played about twenty times. I said you try Tubbs!’...Well the next Saturday night now when Tubby strung up down the farm U Roy said he’s going to play ‘Part Two’ but Tubby did it different now. He started with the voice then dropped it out and let the rhythm run and then he brought in the voice in the middle and from there Tubby started to get really popular.’’ \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBunny ‘Striker’ Lee \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDynamic Sounds upgraded to sixteen track recording in 1972 and Tubby purchased, again with the help of a deal brokered by Bunny Lee. The old four track equipment and the MCI console from their Studio B. The four tracks now gave him far wider scope to work with and he began to create a new musical form where the bass and drum parts were brought up while the faders allowed Tubby to ease the vocal and rhythm in and out of the mix. We have compiled a selection of cuts that were all tried and tested on Tubby’s Home Town Hi Fi Sound System and worked a great set of Bunny Lee’s rhythms in fine style.

Having helped his own father out repairing televisions and such like, he would help Tubby on winding transformer coils, that the amps of the day all needed. His interest in recording grew as he watched the many sessions taking place at Tubby's Dromilly Avenue Studio, learning the ropes as the musicians came and went. His first break happened when King Jammy (then Prince Jammy) was too tired to work on a session booked for producer Errol 'Don' Mais. Scientist engineered the session to every one’s bewilderment and great satisfaction.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHis first hit would be a mix of Barrington Levy's 'Collie Weed' and his reputation built on the many versions he cut at Tubby's where he would become the engineer of choice. His pared down mixing style suited the new Dancehall reggae sound that came at the tail end of the 1970's and rolled into the 1980's. Such was his stature that albums were now sold with his name on their jacket, 'Scientist Vs Prince Jammy, 'Scientist meets The Space Invaders' to name but two.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHis time at King Tubby's was followed as chief engineer working for the Hookim Brothers at the mighty Channel 1 Studio's and on many of top producer Henry 'Junjo' Lawes tracks, that were hit after hit at the time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe have compiled some tuff tracks from the late 70's \/ early 80's just before everything went digital. Some great dub versions to some killer tracks that rocked the dancehalls around this golden time.The mighty Tristan Palmer whose killer cuts 'BadBoys','Stop Spreading Rumours','Eveready' and 'The Greatest Lover’ alongside Michael Palmer's debut release 'Mr Landlord' and Robert Trench's 'Mr Babylon'. The songs stand back-to-back with Tony Tuff's timeless 'Never Trouble Trouble' and the biblical Rod Taylor's 'The Lord is My Light'. Sammy Dread's 'Wah Dah Wah' and the always respectful Dennis Brown's 'Time and Place' all benefited a touch of magic from The Scientist and his laboratory of effects.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHope you enjoy the set.....\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTracklisting\u003cbr\u003e1.

This was in no short terms aided by the excellent musicians that would mutate from Lee Perry's own studio band The Upsetters into what would become The Wailers band itself.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis set of musicians originally grew out of a group called The Hippy Boys. The core of which consisted of Glenroy Adams on keyboards, Alva 'Reggie' Lewis on guitar and brothers Carlton and Aston 'Familyman' Barrett on drums and bass respectively. This quartet played on most of the Lee Perry produced Wailers material recorded between 1970 and 1971. When in 1972 Bob Marley needed to put together a touring band to promote his work in Europe the Barrett brothers left and became an integral part of the Wailers band.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSo, this link between The Upsetters and the Wailers band would under the guidance of Lee Perry produce an outstanding body of music. Recorded at Randy's Studio 17, as at the time Lee Perry did not have a studio of his own, but on checking out the various studio's available, opted for Studio 17, liking the vibes it transmitted.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWe have unearthed from this selection of work some rare dubs featuring the fabulous melodica playing of Mr Augustus Pablo, playing over these classic rhythms and adding a haunting additional feel to these already iconic tunes. On their initial release Lee Perry recognising the strength of the rhythm tracks, planned to release the vocal cuts as one album and the instrumental versions as another release. We at Jamaican Recordings believing in all thing’s rhythm, also think that these cuts in their dubbed form, with the additional flavour of some fine melodica playing, deserved to be listened to in their own right.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRespect Jah Floyd.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSide 1\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e1.

Working through all the manifestations of reggae from Ska to Roots and Dub, where his ground breaking 1973 ‘Blackboard Jungle’ LP, set the standards, he was an innovator. If this was not enough his recordings of THE WAILERS, many believe to be their finest work. Born Rainford Hugh Perry, 28 March 1936, Hanover, Jamaica. He began his career at the grand age of 16, working for Clement ‘Coxone’ Dodd’s sound system, rising quickly to the position of record scout and organising recording sessions during his 3 year period 1963-1966. Restlessness and unsatisfied with credit he felt due to him he moved on to work with Producers J.J. Johnson and Clancy Eccles, the later of which would help him set up his ‘Upsetter’ label in 1968,which would see his first of many recordings telling the injustices done to him by previous employees. ‘The Upsetter’ track itself pointed at Mr Dodd but reflected back to Perry when he inherited it as a nick name along side many others during the coarse of his career, including ‘Scratch’, again taken from one of his recordings ‘Chicken Scratch’ recorded in 1965\/1966. Perry’s work in 1968 with producer Joe Gibbs was fruitful and resulted in many successfulreleases, but again lack of credit and itchy feet, it was time to move on. But not without leaving his trademark recording summing up his feelings at the time ‘People Funny Boy’ this time aimed at Mr Gibbs. Still not having a studio of his own, Perry recorded at the various Kingston establishments of the time, Randy’s Studio 17 on North Parade, Dynamics on Bell Road and Harry J’s on Roosevelt Avenue where the bulk of the aforementioned recordings with The Wailers were carried out. During this time and the years that followed Perry has built up a vast catalogue of backing tracks \/ instrumentals, he had cut over a 100 releases on his ‘Upsetter’ label alone. A library of music that he has an uncanny knack of reutilising to work into something new when put against a new song \/ singer. This collection of rare and unreleased dubs stems from his 1971-1974 period. We can here on tracks like ‘Perry’s Jump Up’ Ska-ish up tempo chopping guitar cuts leading through to organ laden tracks like ‘Roots Rock Dub’. The sound moving to a slowed down rhythm on ‘Perry in Dub’ which would predominate his sound, when in mid 1974 he’d open his own studio at his home in the Washington Gardens district of Kingston. We hope this selection of lost treasures will add to the jigsaw that makes Mr Perry’s output now spanning over 5 decades so remarkable. \u003cbr\u003eRESPECT....

Situated in his backyard at 5 Washington Gardens, Kingston, Jamaica. Using only basic\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eequipment, a Teac Four-Track Recorder, a Sound craft mixing desk, an Echoplex delay unit and later adding a Phaser effects unit that he used in conjunction with his Roland RE201 Space Echo. He managed mixing down the tracks from Four track to Two track to make his distinctive whirling sound that sets apart the Black Ark Sound from the other Jamaican Studios.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBorn Rainford Hugh Perry, 28 March 1936, Hanover, Jamaica. He began his career at the grand age of 16, working for Clement ‘Coxsone’ Dodd’s sound\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003esystem, rising quickly to the position of record scout and organising recording sessions during his 3-year period 1963-1966. Restlessness and unsatisfied with credit he felt due to him he moved on to work with Producers J.J. Johnson and Clancy Eccles, the latter of which would help him set up his ‘Upsetter’ label in 1968, which would see his first of many recordings telling the injustices done to him by previous employers. ‘The Upsetter’ track itself pointed at Mr Dodd but reflected to Perry when he inherited it as a nick name alongside many others during the course of his career, including ‘Scratch’, again taken from one of his recordings ‘Chicken Scratch’ recorded in 1965\/1966. Perrys work in 1968 with producer Joe Gibbs was fruitful and resulted in many successful releases, but again feeling a lack of credit and itchy feet, it was time to move on. Still not having a studio of his own, Perry recorded at the various Kingston establishments at the time, Randy’s Studio 17 on North Parade, Dynamics on Bell Road and Harry J’s on Roosevelt Avenue where the bulk of the aforementioned recordings with The Wailers were carried out. His dream was always to build his own studio and not to have to work to the constraints of the other studios and producers.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOn opening the Black Ark studios, the hits seemed to come immediately. Firstly with Junior Byles' 'Curly Locks' and in 1975 the massive crossover hit Susan Cadogans' 'Hurt So Good' that reached No 4 in the UK charts.1976 saw Island Records releasing Perrys vast output, timeless material like the Heptones 'Party Time', Max Romeo's 'War Inna Babylon' Bob Marley and the Wailers 'Jah Live', 'Punky Reggae Party' and Junior Murvins 'Police and Thieves' to name but a few.But sometimes missing out on a few classics like Perrys own 'Roast Fish, Collie Weed \u0026amp; Corn Bread' and possibly one of the best reggae albums of all time The Congos 'Heart of the Congos'. Dub releases like 'Revolution Dub' (1975) showed a way forward for his production skills in this formidable arena. Having his own studio allowed him to build up a vast catalogue of tracks to work on. We have culled together some lost productions that Lee Perry carried out with singer Mike Brookes, a fine singer, arranger from that special time in the Black Arks history. Sounding like Junior Marvin in parts and Max Romeo in others but still carrying a distinctive Falsetto voice. Some classic tracks as you can see recorded with the cream of musicians at Lee Perrys disposal.

After discovering a mistake that made a ‘serious joke’ (more of which later...) they went on to release the first pressings of this new musical genre namely ‘Dub Music’. Tubby’s vast knowledge of electronics and Bunny’s vast catalogue of rhythms would lay the foundations of what today is taken as a standard... the Remix \/ Version cuts to an existing vocal tune.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOsbourne ‘King Tubby’ Ruddock was born in Kingston, Jamaica on 28th January 1941 and grew up in the High Holborn Street area of downtown Kingston. He studied electronics at Kingston’s National Technical College and also on two correspondence courses from the U.S.A... When he had qualified Tubby began repairing radios and other electrical appliances in a shack in the back yard of his mother’s home. His work in the early days included winding transformers and building amplifiers for Kingston’s Sound Systems. Tubby built his first Sound System in 1957 playing jazz and Rhythm \u0026amp; Blues at local weddings and birthday parties. His reputation as a man who knew and understood both electronics and music grew steadily and as the sixties drew to a close. Tubby purchased his own basic two track equipment. He installed this alongside his dub cutting machine, a homemade mixing console and his impressive collection of Jazz albums in the back bedroom of his home at 18 Dromilly Avenue which he christened his music room.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTubby and Striker were at Treasure Isle Studio’s one day while Ruddy from Spanish Town was working with the engineer Byron Smith....\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Tubby and myself was talking when Ruddy was cutting some dub but Smithy (engineer) made a mistake through we were talking and forgot to put in the voice. It was two track recording in those days. Ruddy said ‘No Man! Make it stay! and so they cut the rhythm. When I went over to Ruddy’s that Saturday night a dance was in progress and when they played the vocal to the tune... then he said we’re going to play ‘Part Two’. They never called it ‘Version’..and then he played the rhythm track. The song was a catchy song and everybody started to sing along and the deejay started to toast so everything went down well. On Monday morning I went up and I said ‘Tubbs the mistake we made was a serious joke. It mash up Spanish Town! The people went wild. So you have to start to do that now ‘cause when the man put on the ‘Part Two’ everyone start singing this song. It played about twenty times. I said you try Tubbs!’...Well the next Saturday night now when Tubby strung up down the farm U Roy said he’s going to play ‘Part Two’ but Tubby did it different now. He started with the voice then dropped it out and let the rhythm run and then he brought in the voice in the middle and from there Tubby started to get really popular.’’ \u003cbr\u003eBunny ‘Striker’ Lee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDynamic Sounds upgraded to sixteen track recording in 1972 and Tubby purchased, again with the help of a deal brokered by Bunny Lee. The old four track equipment and the MCI console from their Studio B. The four tracks now gave him far wider scope to work with and he began to create a new musical form where the bass and drum parts were brought up while the faders allowed Tubby to ease the vocal and rhythm in and out of the mix. It was only a matter of time before Tubby’s dub plate experiments began to make it on to vinyl and the first ever long-playing King Tubby releases would feature a collection of his mixes to a selection of Strikers rhythms. So please sit back and enjoy this historic set of sounds, mixed by King Tubby and Mr Prince Phillip Smart and another set of scorcher Bunny Lee rhythms.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTracklisting\u003cbr\u003e1.

While Bob Marley set out to conquer the world, Dennis’s popularity on the island grew with every year. Overseas success also came Browns way with crossover hits like the massive ‘Money In My Pocket’. He will always be fondly remembered on the sound systems across the caribbean as the Crown Prince of Reggae.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDennis Brown (b Dennis Emanuel Brown,1957, Kingston, Jamaica) began his illustrious career at the grand age of eleven like many of the other child singers at Coxsonne Dodds Studio One stable. His first hit in 1969 a cover of Van Dykes ‘No Man Is An Island’ still stands the tests of time and also its follow up cut ‘If I Follow My Heart’ as Reggae classics. The 1970’s saw Dennis build on his reputation by working with all the top Jamaican producers and\u003cbr\u003estudio’s perfecting his sound. Lloyd Daley, Impact, Joe Gibbs, Aquarius and Derrick Harriott to name but a few. But it was his work with producer Winston ‘Niney’ Holness that he enjoyed the most success and many say recorded his best work for.

While Bob Marley set out to conquer the world, Dennis’s popularity on the island grew with every year. Overseas success also came Browns way with crossover hits like the massive ‘Money In My Pocket’.

His first hit in 1969 a cover of Van Dykes ‘No Man Is An Island’ still stands the tests of time and also its follow up cut ‘If I Follow My Heart’ as Reggae classics.

This band would evolve into the Channel One house band The Revolutionaries where Sly named after his fondness of the band Sly and the Family Stone would begin to play alongside a bass player who would become his long standing partner in music, namely one Robbie Shakespeare. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRobbie Shakespeare born 27 September 1953, Kingston, Jamaica, had worked his way through session bands including the legendary Aggrovators before uniting with Sly Dunbar in The Revolutionaries. Both musicians had worked with other respective bass \/ drum players including such figures as Lloyd Parks [bass], Carlton 'Santa' Davis [drums], but everything seemed to fall into place when they worked together. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey also both had a quest to push the boundaries of reggae music, which they would do throughout their careers, over many sessions to numerous to mention. But highlights would include the groundbreaking Mighty Diamonds 1976 set 'Right Time' with its fresh rockers rhythms which lead the way in the 1970's. Also their work with the bands Culture and Black Uhuru the later of which they toured extensively with, spreading the reggae vibes across Europe and America. Not to forget to mention their Taxi label \/ productions which are always inventitive whether its in the reggae field or outside where their playing \/ production skills are much in demand. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe third piece of this jigsaw is the mighty Mr Bunny 'Striker' Lee who brought these legends together. Born Edward O'Sullivan Lee 23 August 1941, he must be one of reggae's most underrated producers. Leading the way in the 1970's especially in the dub field and being one of the early exponents of a King Tubby remix ,which would see nearly all his 7'' releases carrying a Tubby reworking on its flip side. Bunny started his musical career in 1962 working for Duke Reid's Treasure Isle label and soon moved into the world of production gaining his first hit in 1967 with 'Musical Field' by Roy Shirley for the WIRL label. The 1970's was a very productive time for Bunny Lee and saw the launch of his LEE'S label which was producing hits in Jamaica. Not having a studio of his own and renting studio time from the existing establishments like Randy's Studio 17 and Channel One he had to have a crack team of session players to carry out this task, fast and efficiently. This happened firstly under the guise of THE AGGROVATORS [ see The Aggrovators dubbing it studio 1 style JRCD005] and then with the group of musicians THE REVOLUTIONARIES[ see The Revolutionaries at Channel 1 dub plate specials JRCDOO3]. It’s here in the latter of these groups that Bunny matched Sly and Robbie together for the first time and it’s this match made in heaven that these tracks on this release are culled from. Sessions that Bunny Lee produced with Sly and Robbie during this magical 70's period. These rare dubs are taken from the original master tapes, you may have heard the tune before but not these versions.

He studied electronics at Kingston’s National Technical College and also on two correspondence courses from the U.S.A... When he had qualified Tubby began repairing radios and other electrical appliances in a shack in the back yard of his mother’s home. His work in the early days included winding transformers and building amplifiers for Kingston’s Sound Systems. Tubby built his first Sound System in 1957 playing jazz and Rhythm \u0026amp; Blues at local weddings and birthday parties. His reputation as a man who knew and understood both electronics and music grew steadily and as the sixties drew to a close. Tubby\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003epurchased his own basic two track equipment. He installed this alongside his dub cutting machine, a home-made mixing console, and his impressive collection of jazz albums in the back bedroom of his home at 18 Dromilly Avenue which he christened his music room.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTubby and Striker were at Treasure Isle Studio’s one day while Ruddy from Spanish Town was working with the engineer Byron Smith....\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e“Tubby and myself was talking when Ruddy was cutting some dub but Smithy (engineer) made a mistake through we were talking and forgot to put in the voice. It was two track recording in those days. Ruddy said ‘No Man! Make it stay! and so they cut the rhythm. When I went over to Ruddy’s that Saturday night a dance was in progress and when they played the vocal to the tune... then he said we’re going to play ‘Part Two’. They never called it ‘Version’..and then he played the rhythm track. The song was a catchy song and everybody started to sing along and the deejay started to toast so everything went down well. On Monday morning I went up and I said ‘Tubbs the mistake we made was a serious joke.It mash up Spanish Town! The people went wild. So you have to start to do that now ‘cause when the man put on the ‘Part Two’ everyone start singing this song. It played about twenty times. I said you try Tubbs!’...Well the next Saturday night now when Tubby strung up down the farm U Roy said he’s going to play ‘Part Two’ but Tubby did it different now. He started with the voice then dropped it out and let the rhythm run and then he brought in the voice in the middle and from there Tubby started to get really popular.’’ \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBunny ‘Striker’ Lee\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDynamic Sounds upgraded to sixteen track recording in 1972 and Tubby purchased, again with the help of a deal brokered by Bunny Lee. The old four track equipment and the MCI console from their Studio B. The four tracks now gave him far wider scope to work with and he began to create a new musical form where the bass and drum parts were brought up while the faders allowed Tubby to ease the vocal and rhythm in and out of the mix. It was only a matter of time before Tubby’s dub plate experiments began to make it on to vinyl and the first ever long-playing King Tubby releases would feature a collection of his mixes to a selection of Strikers rhythms. So please sit back and enjoy this historic set of sounds. Lovingly restored and with a few extra gems added to the CD Editions.

Pablo worked on a varied number of sessions for all the top Jamaican producers, but especially for King Tubby at his studio in the heart of the Waterhouse district of Kingston, Jamaica.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAugustus Pablo (b. Horace Swaby, 1954, St Andrew, Jamaica) cut his musical teeth with producer Herman Chin – Lo in 1969, with his first record ‘Iggy Iggy’. His second cut for the producer was to be the timeless ‘East of the River Nile’ which carried that haunting\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFar-Eastern feel that in many ways became his signature sound. We have concentrated for this release on his sessions at King Tubby’s studio where over a stream of producer Bunny Lee’s rhythms, Pablo’s talents were required. Rhythms that Bunny had already cut at the various other studio’s around Kingston, for example, Channel 1 where he had recorded his cut to the’ Declaration of Rights’ rhythm.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRandy’s Studio 17, where he recorded Horace Andy’s version of Bill Wither’s ‘ Ain’t No Sunshine’. To Dynamic Sounds studio, used for Delroy Wilson’s ‘Cool Operator’ , Errol Dunkley’s‘ Black Cinderella’ and John Holt’s ‘Clock On The Wall’. Even back to Coxonne Dodd’s Studio 1 for Alton Ellis’s ‘I’m Just A Guy’.

Pablo worked on a varied number of sessions for all the top Jamaican producers, but especially for King Tubby at his studio in the heart of the Waterhouse district of Kingston, Jamaica.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAugustus Pablo (b. Horace Swaby, 1954, St Andrew, Jamaica) cut his musical teeth with producer Herman Chin – Lo in 1969, with his first record ‘Iggy Iggy’. His second cut for the producer was to be the timeless ‘East of the River Nile’ which carried that haunting\u003cbr\u003eFar-Eastern feel that in many ways became his signature sound. We have concentrated for this release on his sessions at King Tubby’s studio where over a stream of producer Bunny Lee’s rhythms, Pablo’s talents were required. Rhythms that Bunny had already cut at the various other studio’s around Kingston, for example, Channel 1 where he had recorded his cut to the’ Declaration of Rights’ rhythm.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRandy’s Studio 17, where he recorded Horace Andy’s version of Bill Wither’s ‘ Ain’t No Sunshine’.

He studied electronics at Kingston’s National Technical College and also on two correspondence courses from the U.S.A... When he had qualified Tubby began repairing radios and other electrical appliances in a shack in the back yard of his mother’s home. His work in the early days included winding transformers and building amplifiers for Kingston’s Sound Systems. Tubby built his first Sound System in 1957 playing jazz and Rhythm \u0026amp; Blues at local weddings and birthday parties. His reputation as a man who knew and understood both electronics and music grew steadily and as the sixties drew to a close. Tubby purchased his own basic two track equipment. He installed this alongside his dub cutting machine, a homemade mixing console and his impressive collection of Jazz albums in the back bedroom of his home at 18 Dromilly Avenue which he christened his music room.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTubby and Striker were at Treasure Isle Studio’s one day while Ruddy from Spanish Town was working with the engineer Byron Smith....\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e“Tubby and myself was talking when Ruddy was cutting some dub but Smithy (engineer) made a mistake through we were talking and forgot to put in the voice.

When I went over to Ruddy’s that Saturday night a dance was in progress and when they played the vocal to the tune... then he said we’re going to play ‘Part Two’. They never called it ‘Version’..and then he played the rhythm track. The song was a catchy song and everybody started to sing along and the deejay started to toast so everything went down well. On Monday morning I went up and I said ‘Tubbs the mistake we made was a serious joke. It mash up Spanish Town! The people went wild. So you have to start to do that now ‘cause when the man put on the ‘Part Two’ everyone start singing this song. It played about twenty times. I said you try Tubbs!’...Well the next Saturday night now when Tubby strung up down the farm U Roy said he’s going to play ‘Part Two’ but Tubby did it different now.

The four tracks now gave him far wider scope to work with and he began to create a new musical form where the bass and drum parts were brought up while the faders allowed Tubby to ease the vocal and rhythm in and out of the mix. It was only a matter of time before Tubby’s dub plate experiments began to make it on to vinyl and the first ever long-playing King Tubby releases would feature a collection of his mixes to a selection of Strikers rhythms.

Tunes were tried and tested in the lion’s den of the dance, to see which songs rose to the top and became the most popular. This was the litmus test and the first step to a tracks commercial release, to capitalise its hotness on the circuit. When the Dub \/ version hit big in Jamaica in the early to mid-70’s, this was also the case and many times the version cut of a track would even prove more popular than its vocal counterpart.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThese ‘version’ cuts were tried out on the Sound System dances across Jamaica as dub plates and sometimes kept exclusive to certain dances, until the producers often forced the hand to release these in demand cuts, mostly to the dismay of the sound System men. Who always hustled to maintain the tracks exclusivity to their Sound System. On release these cuts were matched up with its vocal counterpart as it’s flip \/ version side. Many versions were reworked with various alternatives. Sometimes turning up the brass section, for horns cut or adding a DJ to wax lyrical over the existing rhythm of vocal as in a question \/ answer type style. The more popular the rhythm \/ song the more cuts you could here. Old Studio One rhythms were reworked and cut again say at Channel 1 studio and a new vocal song dropped over that and that became the new basis for a new version to be worked up. Expanding on that great saying’ you can’t keep a good tune down’ to great effect .....\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWe have compiled some great 70’s dub plates that rocked the Sound Systems in Fine style. As stated above some are reworkings of previous songs as in ‘Six Million Dollar Version’ which was a reworking of Alton Ellis’s ‘Breaking Up’ recut for Leroy Smart’s ‘Shame and Pride’ and used for Johnny Clarke’s cover of the song also. This actual version was used as version side to Dennis Alcapone’s ’Six Million Dollar Man’ track hence its name, ‘Dub ites Green And Gold’ was a cut to Johnny Clarke’s version of the Burning Spear classic. So, it goes as they say, necessity is the mother of invention, and we think in this release it proves the case. Where classic rhythms reworked and honed can produce something new and exciting, that will rock the Sound Systems of Jamaica and indeed the world in fine style again and again.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHope you enjoy the set….\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTracklisting\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTrack 1 Exalted Dub\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTrack 2 Bag a Wire Dub\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTrack 3 Dub Ites Green And Gold\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTrack 4 Chapter Of Money\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTrack 5 Beat Them in Dub\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTrack 6 Thunder Rock\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTrack 7 How Long Dub\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTrack 8 Everybody Needs Dub\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTrack 9 Six Million Dollar Version\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTrack 10 Peace and Love In Dub\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTrack 11 A Living Version\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTrack 12 A Heavy Dub\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTrack 13 Drums of Africa*\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTrack 14 Channel Is A Joker*\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTrack 15 Breaking Up Dubwise*\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTrack 16 Version Of Class*\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e*CD Bonus Tracks\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jamaican Recordings","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41495040622748,"sku":"JRLP055","price":15.28,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/products\/JRLP055.jpg?v=1646676864"},{"product_id":"niney-the-observer-at-king-tubby-s-dub-plate-specials-1973-1975-cd","title":"Niney The Observer - At King Tubby’s Dub Plate Specials 1973-1975 [CD]","description":"\u003cp\u003eFormat: CD\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCatalogue No.: JRCD011\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBarcode: 5036848001324\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRelease Date: 17 Jun 2022\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eGenre: Dub Reggae\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWinston ‘Niney’ Holness, A.K.A. The Observer must be one of reggae’s finest Roots Rebel producers. Capable of making some of the heaviest, innovative music, not only in sound but also in the Cultural\/Political sense. Born George Boswell, Montego Bay, Jamaica,1951, and name checked ’Niney’, due to losing a thumb in a workshop accident. He began his career in music by organising bands to play at school dances. But his first steps learning the musical ropes came working under the tutor ledge of producer Bunny Lee around 1967, organising sessions for Bunny’s stable of artists. He moved on to work alongside Lee Perry at Joe Gibb’s ‘Amalgamated’ label setup, where on Lee Perry’s leaving in 1969 to start his own ‘Upsetter’ label, Niney became chief engineer.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInspired by Perry’s success it wasn't long before his own ‘Destroyer’ label was under way. It was 1970, and his first production entitled ‘Mr Brown’ by DJ’s Dennis Alcapone and Lizzy, proved to be a minor hit, but his own ‘Blood and Fire’ track released in December of that year would become a major hit. After initial problems with it’s likeness to Bob Marley’s ‘Duppy Conqueror’, being ironed out, it’s reissue on his now named ‘Observer’ label, saw it go on to become, Jamaican Record of the Year 1971. Far out selling Bob Marley’s track to the tune of over 30,000 copies in Jamaica alone. A roots classic...\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNiney's reputation for building great roots tracks, was furthered with more success working with singer Max Romeo. Issuing cuts such as 'Beard man Feast', the great 'Reggae Matic' and 'Aily and Ailaloo' and renewing his relationship with Lee Perry on the track 'Rasta Band Wagon' who's production credit read Perry, Niney, Maxie. In 1973, Niney began working with Dennis Brown, who was already an established star from an early age, they found a chemistry that went on to produce some of Dennis's finest work.The 1973 hit 'Westbound Train' was followed in 1974 by 'Cassandra', 'I am the Conqueror' and the timeless 'No more shall I Roam'.Another important connection around this time was the great King Tubby who Niney would take his tapes along to and even record some of his tracks at Tubby's house, 18 Drummlie Avenue, Kingston, which doubled as his Studio of Dub.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt's these tracks that we are concentrating on here, Tubby would strip the tracks back to the bone and rebuild them sometimes leaving off the hook line. Weather that be the horn line or keyboard line and adding effects over the top that could disguise the cut even more. Even Niney stating that when Tubby had finished with a cut, he found it hard to recognise the track himself.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt's these tracks as dub plate specials that Tubby would play on his Hometown HI - FI Sound System and it's these such tracks that we have compiled for this release. Dub Plates that have not seen the light of day since tragically the great Osbourne Ruddock A.K.A. King Tubby was gunned down and murdered on the 06th of December 1989. For a few dollars and a gold chain, reggae music has lost one of its most inventive, creative forces.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNiney also cut tracks with many other reggae giants, Gregory Issac's, Michael Rose, Junior Delgado, Horace Andy, Delroy Wilson to name but a few. As in house producer at the legendary Channel studios and supervising sessions at Dynamic and Randy's Studio17, his magic touched many.
