Reggae historians will tell you, that Henry
'Junjo' Lawes was the predominant producer of
Jamaican Rub a Dub Reggae in the early 1980's. His
name is on just too many albums and single
releases to mention, and some even credit him with
the founding of this early form of Dancehall back
in 1979.
Junjo launched singers like Barrington Levy,
made extensive use of top notch Dub engineer the
Scientist, whose legendary series on the Greensleeves
label is considered among the top of the all-time
Dub releases.
In this Podcast, the focus is mainly on one of
that other legend of Rub a Dub style: Yellowman.
All tracks are Junjo productions, though. Showing
how the producer worked with Harmony Groups
(Wailing Souls), DJ's (Michigan & Smiley) and
Singers (Barrington Levy).
