Augustus Pablos unique sound which was created around playing what could best be described as a childs musical toy, the melodica. It made him a very popular session player in the late 1970s and early 80s. It was not only his unique talent of playing the instrument but also his talents on a piano and the keyboard. Pablo worked on a varied amount of sessions for all the top Jamaican producers but especially for King Tubby at hi studio in the heart of the Waterhouse district of Kingston Jamaica. We have compiled a set of rhythms that have King Tubby and Phillip Smart at the controls and Augustus Pablo adding his musical flavour to the mix to make what we believe to be a great album...Hope you enjoy the set....
