The Aggrovators - Dubbing It Studio 1 Style LP
SKU: JRLP005 OverviewDescription:
UK import!
The
Aggrovators were one of Jamaica's finest session bands. The band
were put together by Bunny 'Striker' Lee one of
Jamaica's formidable producers,who with no studio of his own
had to rely on buying studio time from the existing
establishments, such as Randy's Studio 17 and the Hookim brothers
Channel One. This was an expensive task
and he needed a pool of top musicians who could cut tracks
quickly and efficiently.
Built around the cream of Jamaica's musicians namely; Carlton
'Santa' Davis, Carlton Barrett [Drums], Robbie Shakespeare,
Aston 'Family man' Barrett, Lloyd Parks [Bass], Earl 'Chinna'
Smith [ lead guitar ], Tony Chin, Winston 'Bo Beep' Bowen [Rhythm
Guitar] Ansel Collins [Piano], Bernard ' touter' Harvey, Winston
Wright [ Organ ], Bobby Ellis [Trumpet], Vin Gordon
[Trombone], Tommy McCook [Tenor Saxophone ] and Lennox Brown [ Alto
Saxophone ].
The updating of Studio One
classics which in some cases were reworkings of American R &
B tunes [ 'foreign tunes ' as they were known in Jamaica ],
was common practice. The rhythms were much loved favourites
and with the added incentive that the musicians knew the
tracks inside out .This set of dubs are straight from the
master tapes of such sessions orchestrated by the man Bunny
Lee himself, no one knew better. You can't keep a good tune down
never mind a great one. So sit back and enjoy The Aggrovators
in fine Studio One style...
