Editorial Reviews
Product Description
Herman Chin Loy has a sound that is as distinctive as any in Reggae. Always specializing in the quirky and the offbeat. His Scorpio and Aquarius labels were responsible for some of the most innovative instrumentals in reggae.
Herman DJ’d and MC’d at some of Kingston's coolest clubs. He was actually making instrumental records under the name of Augustus Pablo before a skinny young kid called Horace Swaby turned up in his shop holding a melodica!! Herman gifted the name Augustus Pablo on the young Swaby and took him to the studio. The rest is history.
What we have here are some of the liveliest funky reggae music that was ever made. With performances by Dennis Brown, DJ Dennis Alcapone scat intros from Herman himself - This album is a delight from start to finish.
