AUGUSTUS PABLO (Horace Swaby 1954 - 1999) Augustus Pablo died in 1999 leaving behind for posterity and future generations a vast quantity of original and distinctive roots reggae recordings. Most were self productions featuring himself as well as other singers and DJ's, some instrumental work for other producers, and a collection of some of the heaviest dubs ever mixed by the great King Tubby. Pablo defined himself from other reggae musicians of the day due to the distinctive minor key 'Far East' sounds of his production and their mysteriously mournful, meditative air given its most recognisable manifestation by his use of the melodica. Live performances by him, particularly overseas, were rare due to his reluctance to tour and the continuing health issues that plagued him for most of his life. There was also the challenge of replicating his unique studio sound and accommodating it into the live performance environment. However, he eventually acceded to popular demand and travelled to Europe and the US in the 1980's to play a short series of concerts for a devoted and appreciative following that were eager to listen to and experience the man and his music first hand. I’ll leave it at that for the biographical detail and discography as much has been written on Pablo by more eminent and knowledgeable writers than I - David Katz, Chris Lane and Dave Hendley to name but three - so rather than duplicate their authoritative work I recommend tracking down their excellent contributions to reggae history. With the assistance and encouragement of the late Brent Clarke and the informed opinions of producer Dennis Bovell, 'ejr' were able - on a negligible or non-existent budget - to film Augustus Pablo and the Rockers band performing live at the Charing Cross Astoria, London in both 1987 and 1989. Unfortunately, only about 10 minutes of footage from the former gig exists due to a problem with the sole camera used. The 1989 show was recorded on multiple cameras utilising both 16mm and analogue video formats, although the last two songs from the performance are missing, as is the footage of both Yami Bolo and Junior Delgado. Further gremlins, Obeah or Duppy's were at work as the mixing desk sound either never got recorded or went missing, so the raw, lo-fi, uncompressed soundtrack, recorded on one of the camera's microphones, is the only audio. Likewise the stage lighting where the red filters were meant to be substituted for white or cyan to allow less muzzy images to be recorded on the analogue video cameras. Despite these technical issues which render the film less than perfect, it is still a rare filmic record featuring some of Jamaica's most talented musicians at the top of their game playing live in front of an enthusiastic audience filling the auditorium with appreciation, excitement and herb smoke. It could well be that this latter activity was, in part at least, responsible for the overall problems encountered on the night, not that any of the film crew were partaking, of course! If there was a haze of redolent smoke out front, backstage it was impossible to see more than a few metres, a contemporary London Fog which, like its predecessor has since been swept away with clean air legislation. Even though her name has been unforgivably omitted from the credits, thanks and respect is overdue to Paula N Jordan who was passionate in her determination in getting me to finally commit and finish this film. As a final comment on the film, the musicians who are in it and particularly the originators from Jamaica, people from every country in the world, many born after this concert took place and who discovered Roots reggae anew, have enthused about the infectious nature and inclusive cultural ideology of the music which in just a few decades has encompassed the globe and hits them in the heart and soul, body and mind. Right on, Live on, Skank on.
