Augustus Pablo - Rockers United!

A prestigious deep-dive into the vocal archives of the Rockers empire.

As the meteoric rise of reggae captivated the world in the 1970s, Augustus Pablo emerged as a vital creative force, steering the genre toward a more "Far East," mystical sound. While Pablo is world-renowned for his melodica work and dub wizardry, his role as a producer for Jamaica's finest vocalists is equally legendary. Nature Sounds now presents Rockers United!, a curated collection of classic and rare vocal gems pulled directly from the Rockers archives—all produced by the man himself.

This LP serves as a masterclass in the "Rockers" aesthetic: hypnotic, bass-heavy instrumentation paired with the most soulful voices of the era. The tracklist reads like a "who’s who" of roots reggae, featuring iconic performances by the late, great Jacob Miller, the ethereal Hugh Mundell, and the grit of Junior Delgado. From the harmonies of Tetrak to the smooth delivery of Earl Sixteen and Delroy Williams, every selection is anchored by Pablo’s unmistakable production style. Sourced from the original master tapes and featuring remastered audio, this collection brings a crisp, modern clarity to these vintage analog sessions. For fans of the Pablo legacy and the golden age of roots, Rockers United! is a definitive document of a producer at the height of his powers.
