Augustus Pablo – Thriller [BFRSD2022]

Thriller is the 1975 album from Augustus Pablo, the reggae visionary who popularized the use of the melodica in the genre. As the founder of multiple labels, he was a crucial part of invigorating the burgeoning dub reggae scene in it’s early days. The record’s warm, mellow sound makes for a breezy and hypnotic listen, perfectly paired with a jazz cigarette (for those that partake). ORG Music will reissue this lost gem for the first time since the 70’s on transparent red vinyl, limited to a run of 2,000 copies, exclusively for RSD Black Friday.
