The Lost Sound of Augustus Pablo
Available for the first time ever on vinyl, Roots Vibes returns in a newly remastered 30th Anniversary Edition, unveiling a rare collection of recordings from reggae pioneer Bunny "Striker" Lee, shaped by Augustus Pablo's unmistakable Far East sound. A deep excursion into fourteen heavyweight instrumental and dub recordings spanning 1972 to 1992, the album is anchored by timeless Jamaican riddims and Pablo's haunting melodica melodies, carried by the rock-solid pulse of The Aggrovators and masterfully mixed by King Tubby, Prince Jammy, Phillip Smart and Pat Kelly. Cut at Kingston's most revered studios-Randy's Studio 17, Treasure Isle, Dynamic Sounds, Channel One and Harry J Studios-these recordings embody the golden age of reggae and dub. Built on classic rhythms first immortalised by artists including The Eternals, Prince Buster, John Holt, Ken Boothe and Don Drummond, Bunny Lee's signature approach of reinventing proven riddims is transformed by Pablo's deeply spiritual playing into something entirely his own. More than three decades after it's original release, Roots Vibes remains a compelling showcase of Augustus Pablo's singular artistry and a lasting testament to one of reggae's most visionary musicians.

Shipping, Returns & Cancellations
Shipping, Returns & Cancellations
SHIPPING:
We ship Monday through Friday. Orders typically ship within 24-72 hours. Tracking is sent to the email you provide at check out and may take a few days to become active.
Any items ordered with Pre-Orders will be held until they can all ship together. If you need in stock items faster please order them seperately.
RETURNS:
Returns are only accepted on damaged or defective items. Return requests must be made within 7 days of delivery. Please save the original packaging.
If you own a Crosley, Victrola or any other lower end turntable that has no ability to adjust the weight of the tone arm and are experiencing skipping on a new record please try the "Penny Trick". Simply place a penny on the top of the cartidge and it should provide enough weight to resolve your issues. While a great entry to the world of vinyl we do recommend upgrading to a turntable with a tone arm that can be adjusted as this issue will randomly occur. We do not take returns in these cases.
Resellers: If you are buying from us for resale we honestly don't mind. However, please don't panic if something you bought suddenly isn't flipable for more money and then try to return stuff to us because you feel like you made a bad investment choice. Despite our outsized reputation we're a small shop, not amazon. Absorbing these costs adds up on places like ours. Plus a little patience always tends to pay off.
CANCELLATIONS:
Due to an increasing number of payment processors no longer returning transaction fees to sellers on cancelled orders and rising labor costs any orders or pre-orders that need to be cancelled before shipment will be assessed a 5% cancellation/restocking fee on the order total including shipping and any other taxes or fees associated with the order.
Thank you for your understanding.
