Review

When you're lookin' for that authentic reggae vibe that transports ya straight to the heart of the Caribbean, look no further than "Who Say Jah No Dread - The Classic Augustus Pablo Sessions" by Jacob Miller. Released in 2015, this collection showcases the magic that happened between 1974 and 1975, with Augustus Pablo’s legendary production at the helm.

With tracks like the lively "Keep On Knocking" and the heartfelt "Baby I Love You So," the album takes you on a rhythmic journey. Augustus Pablo's melodica and organ add lush layers to the beats, while bass grooves from Aston "Family Man" Barrett and Leroy "Heptones" Sibbles keep things solid. And don't miss the horn section with Richard "Dirty Harry" Hall and Bobby Ellis adding just the right amount of elegance.

Jacob Miller's vocals are pure fire, energetic and full of passion. His voice dances effortlessly over the grooves, cracklin' with urgency and soulful expression. The lyrics dive deep into Rastafarian themes and social issues, reflecting the vibes of the era in which these tunes were born.

The production, mixed by King Tubby and mastered at The Town House, makes every track shine like a diamond in the sun. It's a blend of the raw spirit of the original sessions with a polished modern touch. So, kick back, relax, and let “Who Say Jah No Dread - The Classic Augustus Pablo Sessions” whisk you away on a reggae adventure you won't soon forget. - Marley
