Reggae Wednesday

Pablo Moses burst onto the reggae scene in 1975 with his single I Man A Grasshopper, a song influenced by the TV series 'Kung Fu'. Despite the initial acclaim, he struggled to attain the fame and recognition many of his fellow countrymen did around this time. It wasn't until the early 80s that he found himself receiving major plaudits once more with the albums 'A Song' and 'Pave The Way'.

Today's track, however, is taken from 1983's 'In The Future' and is the one I normally turn to when it comes to mixtape/playlist compiling. Pablo is due to release a new album next month. 'The Itinuation' will be his first record in seven years.

  2. I seem to remember that one of Pablo's early LP's was a particular favourite of a certain Mr Rotten at the time.
