Augustus Pablo (born Horace Swaby) may not have invented dub, but he has
certainly become its greatest master. His rhythmic originality and uncanny
melodic sense set the standards. The improvisation that he creates with his
evocative melodies are worthy of the best jazz improvisers... Pablo was
born June 21, 1954 in St. Andrew, Jamaica -- and this special celebrated his
birthday (albeit a week late).
Three hours of Pablo's music, and his productions of other artists (like
Jacob Miller, Hugh Mundell, and Yami Bolo), plus interviews and other
commentary provided by Shanachie Records (as part of their "Unsung Hero of
Reggae" tribute to Augustus Pablo).
The show has been cut into 3 MP3s - each fitting on an 80min CDR. All 3
parts are available at the OurMedia URL (above), or each part is available
