Super Heavy Rockers label 12'

Hello People,

Just a quick post today so I can share with you this brand new 12' in the vault.
As the one of you familiar with classic roots era should know, Rockers is the name of one of Augustus Pablo's labels ("Hot Stuff" and "Message" are two others).

Born Horace Swaby, Pablo was known for the introduction of the melodica into reggae music and a specific kind of melody lines known as "Far East sound" (in reference of one of his first single titled East of the river Nile).

As a producer, Pablo was serious about the lyrics, producing a serious number of great conscious tunes from many artists he helped to reveal like Jacob Miller (before the Inner Circle era), Hugh Mundell and more already known artists as Horace Andy.

This 12' is a perfect example of the mystic spirit in his production output. The slow super-heavy bassline, the sharp as an edge mix (certainly from King tubby) makes it a killer indeed.

Here you have the Disco12' in his entire glory (the song, the dub and, on the B side a melodica cut from Pablo himself).

Enjoy!
