Description
In the spring and summer of 1977,Augustus Pablo was spending a good deal of time at the Black Ark in Jamaica,blowing melodica and playing keyboards on Lee Perrys rhythm tracks in exchange for studio time.In his own words "Congos was voicing every day.I was doing an album with Lee Perry for Island but it didnt work out.Something went down.I think Pauline his ex-wife still has the tape.I cant remember none of the songs,just "Jah Wah".One came out on 45,~"Vibrate On".Lee "Scratch" Perry is the ultimate example of "the producer as artist",who literally plays the mixing console as if it were an instrument.Although the Black Ark was only a 4-track studio,Perry made it sound like 24 or more,the hi-hat sound becoming the most distinctive aspect of any vintage Black Ark production.When Perry sent his Hi-Hat signal through the reverb,flange and delay(as on the classic "Fisherman" by the Congos),the entire song would spiral as if being cooked on a spit!.Vibrate On(n) is a prime example,being one of Pablo and Perrys most noteworthy collaborations,a dense instrumental groove that is positively psychedelic,floating on a raft of sound ,probing the outer reaches of reggae jazz.! The B-side, Dub on(n),is a reverb drenched monster.Anyways, you have to hear it to dig it,both sides are in exellent condition.Original biscuit
