Whenever I see Augustus Pablo's son Addis playing behind the singing of the Sons of Dub these days, it makes me smile to know this tradition continues in good hands.
@@DevastateOne the Melodica is a sort of keyboard harmonica. It has been around since the 50s, but Augustus Pablo, aka Horace Swaby, was the first to gain fame from playing this instrument. Danny McFarlane and Peter Tosh used it in reggae and Rocksteady songs in the 60s, but Pablo was the first to exclusively use the Melodica in Jamaican music.
