Review

The Wire (p.64) - "[S]onic revelations which would exercise a profound impact on the development of modern dance and other genres of contemporary music."

Title Note

Recording information: 1972 - 1977.

The question of who invented dub may never be answered, but King Tubby is a serious contender. In the 1970s, as he helped to pioneer, develop, and master the possibilities of the genre, Tubby produced hundreds of records, subsequently resulting in dozens of compilations. Many of these are quite good, and of interest to collectors, but IN FINE STYLE may be the definitive Tubby anthology. The two discs here, each containing 23 tracks, chronologically document the producer's innovations throughout the '70s and feature some of the most evocative music to emerge from Jamaica in that decade.

Tubby's dub is noticeably clean, and it is hard to believe that the booming bass, shifting webs of percussion, mountains of effects (phase and echo were among his favorites), and deconstructive, recombinant approach to remixing were all generated on a four-track. Dense, heady, and always groovy, Tubby's work with The Upsetters, the Aggrovators, and the rest of the island's finest is perfectly represented here (the collaborations with Augustus Pablo, featuring Pablo's haunting melodica, are especially noteworthy). In many ways a blueprint for the DJ culture that would gain worldwide prominence in the decades to come, IN FINE STYLE is essential listening.
