Smart, Phillip
Meets The Aggrovators At King Tubbys
Phillip Smart was one of the great engineers to learn his trade as understudy to the legendary dub master himself
OsbourneKing TubbyRuddock.
Alongside other luminaires such as Prince Jammy and Scientist,Phillip Smart would step in at the controls when demand
for King Tubby studio dubs grew to such an extent that each single release was expected to carry a version/dub flipside.
Phillip Smart moved to the United States in the late 70s and in 1981 opened his successful studio HC&F,Long Island,New
York.It produced some sizeable Jamaican Dancehall hits for his two record labels TanYah and Eclipse.
Tracks like Dirtsmans Hot This Year and Rikers Island and most notably artist Shaggy used the studio to work up his
massive hits Oh Carolina,Big Up and Angel.
But its in the heady days of the early 1970s and up to 1976 that we concentrate on for this release.When Version was
King and Prince Phillip Smart was at the controls mixing up some fine dubs with Jamaicas finest musicians The
Aggrovators.
Working some of producer BunnyStrikerLees rhythms in fine style....hope ypu enjoy the set......
