November 2007 - Backed by Aswad's very
own Drummie Zeb, Barrington Levy performs
one of his many hits during the days wherein
Rub a Dub style was at it's heights.
Historically Rub a Dub can be placed between the
digital Sleng-Teng riddim that changed Reggae
Music during the mid 1980's and the Toasters
("Reggae Rappers") who chanted on
heavily mixed Rockers DUB in the 1970's.
It was the predominant style within Jamaican
Reggae during the early to mid 1980's and with
Channel One Studios releasing one hit after the
other played by the Roots Radics, vocalist
Barrington Levy became one of the most popular
singers during the time.
This video captures a young Barrington in the
year of George Orwell's famous novel performing
live with Aswad's Drummer and the rest of a
crucial Reggae band.
