Joe Gibbs the BIG BIG legendary reggae producer passed away recently at the age of sixty-five - expect quite a few tribute posts going out from the boogie shed over the next few weeks....
"It was confirmed last night that Jamaican music lost another of its most influential figures when Joe Gibbs passed at the University Hospital of the West Indies on Thursday night after suffering a heart attack.
Born in Montego Bay in 1943, Gibbs (real name Joel Gibson) first became involved in Jamaica’s music business around the close of 1966, after being spurred by the sales of records at his newly opened TV repair shop at 32 Beeston Street, Kingston. He had only recently returned from America, where he had qualified as an electronics engineer, an education that was to prove invaluable throughout his new career. Aided and encouraged by Bunny Lee, Gibbs launched his Amalgamated label, with the enigmatic Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry engineering the sessions. Success was immediately forthcoming with releases featuring a variety of performers, most notably Roy Shirley, Errol Dunkley, Stranger & Gladdy, the Versatiles and the Pioneers. His dramatic ascendancy to the upper echelons of the Jamaican music industry was soon recognised by the Island/Trojan organisation, which launched a UK version of his Amalgamated imprint in 1968. Later that same year, Perry left Gibbs‘ employ to launch his own Upsetter the producer swiftly finding an able replacement in Winston ‘Niney’ Holness, who for the next couple of years ensured the hits continued unabated.
In 1970, Gibbs finally made his mark internationally, with his production of ‘Love Of The Common People’ by Nicky Thomas, which peaked at #9 in the UK that summer. By this time, Gibbs had introduced three further labels, Shock, Jogib and Pressure Beat, with a British version of the latter also inaugurated by Trojan. The producer had also opened his New York Record Mart at 11 South Parade, Kingston and set up his own two track studio at 17 Burns Avenue in the Duhaney Park region of town, from where over the next few years he produced a number of superb singles, including further releases by the likes of Nicky Thomas, the Inspirations, Max Romeo the Heptones and Peter Tosh.
Around 1972, Gibbs moved his base of operations to 20 North Parade, Kingston and over the ensuing months recorded a variety of artistes, much of which he issued on his new Joe Gibbs Record Globe label. Among those who cut material for the producer during this period were Dennis Brown (whose first version of ‘Money In My Pocket’ was a sizable Jamaican hit that year), Delroy Wilson and Big Youth.
In 1975 he relocated once more, setting up a sixteen-track studio and pressing plant at 24 Retirement Crescent, Kingston 5, where he installed former Randy’s sound engineer, Errol Thompson at the controls. For the next few years, the hits came thick and fast for the self-proclaimed ‘Mighty Two’, with the likes of Sylford Walker, the Mighty Diamonds, Jacob Miller, Junior Byles, Glen Washington and veteran DJ, Prince Far I among those to have their works produced by Gibbs and Thompson.
The pair also began working with Culture, releasing a number of hit singles by the group, culminating on their highly acclaimed 1977 album, ‘Two Sevens Clash’ album. The same year, Gibbs issued Trinity‘s hugely popular ‘Three Piece Suit’, a recording that utilised the rhythm of Marcia Aitken’s version of Alton Ellis’ ‘I Am Still In Love’. The success of the DJ’s cut led to a whimsical follow-up by teenage schoolgirl duo, Althea Forest and Donna Reid: ‘Up Town Top Ranking’. Despite the song’s lyrics being almost nonsensical to those unfamiliar with Jamaican patois, it breached the UK charts towards the end of 1977 and early the following year, hit the number one spot.
Meanwhile, Gibbs had resumed working with Dennis Brown, their relationship lasting until the close of the decade and spawning a series of major hits, including the singer’s up-dated version of ‘Money In My Pocket’, which broke into the British charts in the spring of 1979, eventually peaking at #14 in the national listings.
An integral ingredient in Gibbs‘ success throughout this period was the musicianship provided by his regular studio band, the Professionals, which at various times included such luminaries as Lloyd Parks and Robbie Shakespeare (bass), Sly Dunbar (drums), Earl ’Chinna‘ Smith (guitar), Gladstone Anderson (keyboards), Ruddy Thomas and Issiah ’Sticky‘ Thompson (percussion), along with a horns section featuring Tommy McCook (tenor sax), Bobby Ellis (trumpet), Vincent Gordon (trombone) and Herman Marquis (alto sax). The exceptional standard of musicianship was perhaps most apparent on the seminal four ‘African Dub’ volumes, issued during the latter part of the seventies.
In 1980, Gibbs produced J.C. Lodge’s international hit, ‘Someone Loves You Honey’, but the failure to pay song-writing royalties to its writer, US Country star, Charley Pride, proved disastrous and following a costly lawsuit, the producer went out of business and relocated to Miami.
He finally returned to making music in 1993, when he rebuilt his studio at 24 Retirement Crescent, reuniting with Errol Thompson, while also employing former Pioneers’ singer/producer, Sydney ‘Luddy’ Crooks to help oversee sessions. A series of worthy singles ensued, with Alton Ellis, Gregory Isaacs, Eric Donaldson and Tanya Stephens among those to work with Gibbs during this period, although the producer was never able to recapture the glory days of the sixties and seventies.
Around this time, he also began reissuing his back catalogue on his son’s Miami-based Rocky One label, while also signing a new deal with Trojan, who promptly began releasing his material in earnest on a series of compilations, primarily focusing upon his Rocksteady and early Reggae works. Later, he set up Joe Gibbs franchises in France and Brazil and as time went on, slowly clawed back some of the huge losses made as a result of the Charley Pride case.
During his lifetime, Joe Gibbs produced some of the finest recordings to see issue in Jamaica. His role in the development of Reggae during the sixties and seventies was immense and his passing yet another terrible blow to an industry that in recent years has lost some of its most influential and inspiring figures."

Hailing from Reading in the UK, Version Big-Fi sound nothing like anything
the city has ever produced. Putting classic songwriting aside, this
twosome bring wired-up punk energy, super heavy reggae grooves and
booming dub echoes to the forefront, as well as taking in influences
as diverse and eclectic as King Tubby, The Clash, Massive Attack,
Dreadzone, Joe Gibbs, Suicide, Scientist, Dead 60s, On-U Sound,
Death In Vegas, The Specials, John Barry & Pop Will Eat Itself they
have a foot firmly implanted in the 21st Century taking Dub forwards
and upwards.
Version Big-Fi have always been determined to stay totally separate
from the insular music scene around them. "We want to make tea," says
bassist Papa Sparks. "Our songs should be sung at every social gathering
in the country. We're not interested in sloganeering, posturing or coffee
in the conventional sense."
Version Big-Fi - Tone (beats/dubs) and Papa Sparks (bass/samples) -
have been honing their radical assault since late 2006.
Previously releasing 2 singles in the UK under the Dubtronic label,
the bands first full-length studio album Everything But was produced
at Big-Fi Studios in Reading.

"Time for more of a jump-up good time after the last instalment's dark infused beats. A surprising hands-in-the-air remix of Múm's sublime experimental electronica gets the party started followed by two takes on Moroder's classic 'I feel Love' dance groove. The dub house disco continues all the way to Norman Cook's Mighty Dub Katz project before we get back to more familiar baroquedub territory with Closer's beats and breaks musings and Dry & Heavy's upfront dub explorations. What follows is a classic roots reggae chill-out - time to relax after all that partying, time to reflect with some serious conscious lyrics. Then sneak in a little xmas party smooching with Marcia Griffiths before heading home through moon-lit streets with Alex Kid and friends. Home by 3am, hopefully happy, content and ready for sleep."

"Another funky breaks mix similar to ‘Sound As…’ & ‘Party Animal’. Technically speaking this is one of my favourite mixes i.e. the mixing part went well (imo), but the volume levels at times were a bit erratic! Starts off midtempo, and builds to quite an energetic level at the end. Some new, some old, some classics and a re-make of a classic……Mixed live on my Denon CD decks…"
