Pablo Moses burst onto the reggae scene in 1975 with the
puzzling song "I Man a Grasshopper" from his debut album
Revolutionary Dream. The song title refers the title
character of the then popular television series Kung Fu
though it tells the story of a drunken ex-cop who turns in a
ganja-smoking singer. It was an enormous hit in both Jamaica
and England, but Moses himself remained fairly unknown.
He was born Pablo Henry in the rural Manchester part of
Jamaica. But for two years spent in New York City, he
remained a country boy until his desire to perform became
too strong.
Moses got his start performing with informal school bands.
He and chum Don Prendes eventually formed the Canaries,
which remained his back-up group, and began performing at
talent shows. They also auditioned for Duke Reid and at
Dodd's Studio One with little success. Following the success
of "Grasshopper," Moses released a few more singles,
including "We Should Be in Angola," but for some reason,
they did better in England than they did in Jamaica. The
song "Give I Fe I Name" was an exception. Revolutionary
Dream was acclaimed, but it brought him little profit and
Moses decided to back off from the music scene for a while.
During this time, he spent two years studying at the Jamaica
School of Music. It was there that he gathered a new group
of musicians and began performing at night clubs, theaters
and on campus. They also made a television show that was
quite popular in Jamaica.
In 1980, Moses returned to reggae with A Song, (1980) an
innovative album produced by Moses and Geoffery Chung that
was recorded in Jamaica using the island's finest session
players and the remixed in London. The result was a
multi-layered blend of roots and sophisticated international
reggae that many consider Moses' masterpiece. Chung then
produced a follow-up, Pave the Way. He continues recording
through the '90s. Sandra Brennan
