King Jammy - Dubbing at King Tubby's LP
SKU: JRLP063
Description:
UK import!
Prince Jammy became a King while cutting his musical teeth working
for the dub master himself King Tubby. In that age old
Jamaican way where it seems everyone in Jamaica was given a
new name to work with, Prince Jammy as he would be called so
impressed his colleges that he rose from a Prince to a King both
names given to him by producer Bunny ‘Striker’ Lee.
King Jammy (b. Lloyd James, 1947, Montego Bay, Jamaica) then named
Prince Jammy took up the vacant spot as engineer at King
Tubby’s request around 1975, after what turned out to be 5
year hiatus in Canada. Jammy had worked with Tubby for many
years previous to this and had built a great working relationship,
but Jammy had taken some work opportunity that would see him
actually staying in Canada for 5 years. It was the Tubby’s
offer of fulltime work and missing Jamaica and family that
would lead to his return.
This would enable Tubby to continue his electrical business knowing
full well that Jammy could be trusted to run the studio
sessions smoothly. Jammy was always the first to arrive and
the last to leave the hundreds of sessions he oversaw
at Tubby’s studio, honing his skills that again with Tubby’s
blessing and guidance would lead to building his own studio
not a stones throw from Tubby’s in the Waterhouse district of
Kingston.
Out of the many proteges that trained and worked at King Tubby’s
and there were many, Scientist, singer Pat Kelly, Prince
Phillip Smart to name but a few it was King Jammy’s work that
was the main stay. We have selected a set of tunes that were
rebuilt with King Jammy at the controls.
