Following the exploratory 1974 dub collaboration King Tubby Meets The Upsetter At The Grass Roots Of Dub, radical mixer King Tubby teamed up with A(u)gustus Pablo, master of the melodica, to create this seminal sequel. King Tubbys Meet Rockers Uptown features Jamaica’s finest studio musicians in its twelve psychedelic soundscapes, confirming Tubby’s status alongside Lee “Scratch” Perry at the pinnacle of dub experimentation.
