BASS CULTURE...Robbie Shakespeare
Robbie Shakespeare straddles two distinct eras in Jamaican music.In the '70s he was an indispensable session player,his mark left on records by Bunny Wailer,Dennis Brown,Black Uhuru and countless others.His place in history was perhaps secured,though,by his work as one half of production duo Sly & Robbie.They were at the vanguard of the 'rub a dub' style which placed digital programming and computer assistance at the heart of reggae production.Records by Grace Jones,Herbie Hancock and Ini Kamoze were unfamiliar and challenging in their day.Shakespeare and Dunbar would move on to spearhead dancehall in the '90s,producing Chaka Demus & Piers' breakout recordings.
