Had a buddy in the 80s, laid off from the oil fields. Mostly he listened to jazz. He got stoned a lot but small amounts at a time, but on the day his check came he would buy an ounce and a big new pile of this stuff on cassette and just roll all of it up into like 20 joints and smoke it all for the entire day with dub and reggae playing the whole time. It was a twice a month ritual for him.

My brother and I had a mushroom trip last night whilst listening to this mix. It was incredible! Funnily enough, while listening, we noticed one of my amplifiers was experiencing issues, and just as Tubby is maintaining his kit in the photo, my brother and I were doing the same. Peaceful, wholesome, and invigorating. Thank you for the time and effort that went into this mix/upload!

The flute is so poignantly sweet in this. And the drums have wonderful, vibrant and surprising melodies. It is a pity the bass line has become so predictable in music nowadays, as if it is on automatic repeat. Thank you GazeMeShoes, for putting these pieces of musical history up so that we can all continue to enjoy them!

That guy on the picture is King Tubby himself, no doubt doing what he had been doing before getting into the music business, fixing or messing with some kind of audio gear. He was known to modify his gear during his life as an engineer/producer/musician too. A true DIY guy with extreme musical talents as well.

The photo of Tubby is interesting. He appears to be actually soldering or something, like, working on the electronics. When you listen to this stuff, it sounds easy, but this was all made with very old school electronics, and I would imagine they couldn't just go out to a store and buy whatever gear they wanted.
