│ │
│ A SALUTE TO PABLO │
│ ----------------- │
│ │
│ He was a very talented musician. He was the best at playing melodica, no one │
│ else could be in his section.He played piano and keyboards in many special │
│ ways. He was original in all the things he was doing. He was very good creator │
│ of melodies, the very best at creating melodies. Maybe he played sweet melodies │
│ because he eat too much sugar! Maybe he smoke too much herb! │
│ I made an album with him. I thought it was going to be a hit vibration all │
│ around the world. It was a beautiful world but it wasn't my world. My world is │
│ not a dread world. Se I didn't finish and I threw out the tapes. │
│ Lee "Scratch" Perry │
│ │
│ Conscious is the mind that appreciates all music. Music exalts your state of │
│ mind. Jamaicans have created the most expressive music I know, drawing from │
│ experiences and Inspiration that bewilders even the creators themselves. │
│ Beethoven, one of Europe's a greatest composers, created the great classics of │
│ Europe. Augustus Pablo is to reggae music what Beethoven is to classical │
│ European music. Augustus Pablo has created classics that will stand the test of │
│ time with melodies beyond Zion, fused with his Rastafarian conviction. Pablo │
│ has captured what many musicians could not do with their instrument, no matter │
│ what genre. And If the critics would just listen and be fair they would │
│ discover one of the greatest instumentalists of all time. │
│ Mutabaruka │
│ │
│ East Of The River Nile... I consider this to be the perfect introduction to │
│ Augustus Pablo. I first heard this album in 1979 and had to keep playing it │
│ over and over again. It's moody, it's tense, it's smooth and heavy. Just like │
│ its creator. The last time I worked with Pablo was in 1998. My last memory of │
│ Pablo was being in Ariwa studios with smoke so thick that we could not see the │
│ desk! This is not an instrumental album. this is not a dub album. This is │
│ something else, I am not sure what it was ahead of Its time In '79 and still │
│ sounds brilliant in 2002. Totally hypnotic! │
│ Neil Fraser a/k/a The Mad Professor │
│ │
│ Definitely one of the most important and influential musicians In late 20th │
│ Century music! │
│ Adrian Sherwood / ON-U Sounds │
│ │
│ Pablo was a very creative person... even the name "rockers," he was the first │
│ to come up with the name "rockers" for the music. He was very quiet, very │
│ soft-spoken but very talented. He never stepped working; he set the pace for │
│ all of us. One of the best pieces I ever worked on with him was "Cassava │
│ Place'. The way Pablo and Tubby mixed that was very special. There was never │
│ another song like it. │
│ Robbie Shakespeare │
│ │
│ Pablo was one of the icons of Jamaican music who set a trend. He believed in │
│ the melodica and he never stopped experimenting with it, getting different │
│ sounds. He was one of the flrst persons to create the dub thing, not the only │
│ one but one of the originators along with Tubby. He worked with Tubby to │
│ explore the full potential of dub. He is sadly missed. Even with this dancehall │
│ thing we have today. If Pablo were here he would be experimenting. We miss him │
│ a lot. │
│ Sly Dunbar │
│ │
│ Melodica in the most high and giving his love to King Selassie I, him music │
│ play forever give hanks and praise, Augustus we'll meet again. │
│ Alex Paterson/ The Orb │
│ │
│ Pablo was one of my many blessings. I learned so much from him mentally and │
│ spirituaIly. He was an inspiration to so many. I will always rememeber Pablo │
│ for his helping and sharing of what he had himself. Pablo would always │
│ ancourage you to not give up. He was also a master musician. There is his music │
│ that will make me feel as if he is in from of me blowing his melodica. There is │
│ his his music that will touch my inner being and bring tears to my eyes. Pablo │
│ was my soulmate. I countinue to give thanks to the Father of Creation for │
│ allowing me to be a part of his life. I could not have asked for a better │
│ father for my son. Pablo, I miss you dearly. Gone but never forgotten. I │
│ continue to feel your spirit within me. I am forever honored and blessed. │
