- "King Tubby Meets Rockers Uptown" is a dub instrumental track by reggae musician Augustus Pablo from the 1976 album of the same name. It is a dub version of the Jacob Miller song "Baby I Love You So", also produced by Pablo.
Allmusic claims that the song is "widely regarded as the finest example of dub ever recorded" and it was listed as the third best song ever recorded by Mojo.
The track is featured on the reggae radio station K-Jah West in the soundtrack of the popular video game Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, released in October 2004.

I used to stay in my car just to listen to this song in GTA San Andreas
oml same!
I grow up listening to this on my dad's stereo. Hearing it now takes me back to happy times.
haha gud shit...enjoying that irie vibe sensation
Jack The Skipper I used to get in and out until it came on again
GTA is what got me into Dub & Roots (after the dub made me want to hear the originals). I loved the Scientist stuff on GTA III
Way ahead of its time. Before the days of programmable drum machines and samplers, King Tubby was using tape delay effects produced from a Roland Sound Echo to produce EDM-like beats here. This song is an ancestor of hip hop, EDM, dancehall, ragga, jungle, drum & bass, and dubstep.
Speak it bro
Great analogy that
Played this tune until tape became transparent 😆 Big up ! 🇯🇲
Whazzz a ... dubstep?
Evertime I hear this track I say to my self this is the birth of jungle and drum & bass
The ultimate dub.........Jacob Miller (vocals) + Augustus Pablo + King Tubby.......we may never see something like this again.
Baby I Love You So - Excursion... such a masterpiece!
The Mother Of All Dubs.
The Big Bang!
yep
Carlton Barret on drums.🔥
Yeah, GOAT❤
So his brother on bass?
Remember that Dub started pretty much ALL modern music. Studio technology, DJ'ing, the role of the producer, the importance of bass etc. Its all in there
word up + chatting/toasting over record. One could say it all started in Jamaica
Sources on that?
Chillionx ... one name: U-Roy
That's an overstatement as the Beatles for example were using the studio as an instrument 10 years before this (Tommorow Never Knows can stand next to this), but yes important especially for dance music.
@@lewissmart7915 Karlheinz Stockhausen was using the studio as an instrument 10 years before the Beatles did on Tomorrow Never Knows. Gesang der Jünglinge was 1956
This song was way ahead of its time.
Stills
Love this track. Heard it on Miami Vice.
Cool Running mon!
I first heard this on WNJR AM in the late 1970s I think. Major Props to PD Jeff Dixon and its still relevant in 2024.. Yes Mon!
probably the most famous dub track ever committed to vinyl.
Wembley, London in the 70’s, Soundville in Harlesden, Proper 🏴🎷🎼👊
How can anyone dislike this.?
This is THE coolest stuff ever! (The production is awesome, like Floyd in the 70's)
I am a metalhead and psychedelic rock enthusiast, but this is, and will always be up there... Cheers
Hey man, I like your comment, I grew up with Wurzel from Motorhead, same town. We used to listen to this type of dub all the time. Lee Scratch Perry?
Yeah man! Lee is legend. No doubt about it. RIP Wurzel
One love man
Wow!! 😂👍🏾
I have total respect that a metal head is able to appreciate dub music!!
Talk about eclectic!! 👊🏾
@@vibez_kru01 we outchea 🤘🏽
EXCELLENT.....MASTERPIECE
my favorite reggae bass line ever! Wicked!!
First reggae track I ever heard - in London in 1983, brought to my house by my first love, God rest his soul. I had postal correspondence with Augustus Pablo, but I've lost the letters :(
Such a shame. Rip both gentlemen.❤
The Most Famous and Revered Jamaican Instrumental Dub Reggae Track of All Time.
K-jah Grand theft Auto San Andreas my game
0:13 that snare gets me everytime!
One of my favourite things ever recorded!
Excellent bit!
played by Carlton Barett himself
man the bass on this is insane. It almost starts to feel like a d&b song at some points. amazing
What's the insane is the drums without a doubt
That’s coz it’s sampled in like a million songs thing is too goof to let die!
It is a drum and bass. King tubby and lee scratch perry invented dub, drum and bass, techno and more other electronic beats and music. Peace and love
Dub inspired many things like the jungle/dnb scene in London
Was known as drum and bass in its day.
What the Fuck. I've never listened to This Masterpiece. THanks Vox
CLASSIC man 👍🏿🔥🔥🔥 shout to VOX's earworm for appreciating the origins of Dub and how it still influences music today.
One of the few tracks at the very peak of the genre .. magnifique
dis tune never die
BoMar1ey but the artist singar is dedd
The granddaddy of Jungle and DNB. The shuffling rhythm and the effects he puts on it anticipate DNB by about what? 16 years-ish? Incredible. You gotta love Dub!
even tho this kinda sounds like jungle this doesnt play any major part in jungle history. jungle came from speeding up and chopping drum breaks, not adding delay to breaks.
@@smiauu Fair point. I guess I was saying that the echo on the drums made it sound sort of breakbeat-y. Also, jungle/drum and bass has substantial roots in reggae, dub and sound-system culture (as does a lot of UK music). That’s where we get our heavy bass from.
Who wasn`t cruising the streets of San Andreas banging this one???
A classic,I never get tired of listening to this.What a sound they created ❤👍😎🌟🌟🌟
I love King Tubbys mixing its beautiful.
0:43 this part is really good
Gives a sudden vibe it’s excellent
What a genius this guy was
When that Timbale hits you know its going down...
GTA SA got me here one of my favourite songs
Explore more, check out Burning Spear, Isaacs, Dennis Brown, Horace Andy & more way the fuck more.
Si lo re escuchaba en el gta x eso ahora me gusta augustus pablo jajaj epico el gta
The mother of all dubs.
The vather
🔥🔥🔥🔥can feel the roots
Forget about it, best dub plate, ever!
Some reggae songs you never want to end like beautiful love story
I get a form of nostalgia from the sounds.
I wish I smoke weed yo get sooo high with this 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Miami vice brought me!!!
This hit by Augustus Pablo was heard on the Miami Vice episode, Cool Runnin', which aired on October 5, 1984. MV is one of my all time favorite shows. It combined MTV with police action drama.
That’s where I first heard this!
Had this back in the day on vinyl as well as Huge Mundell ' Africa must be free by the year 1983'. Don't forget our home grown hero's..Reggae Regulars 'Where is Jah' and 'The Black Starliner'..Black Slate 'Amigo' Steel Pulse 'KLu Klux Klan' ..and many other amazing tracks from Hansworth Revolution/Tribute to the Maryters.
So perfectly layered, just unbelievable after all these years how many modern electronic music styles you can hear melted in this single tune. Quite a bunch of people followed this path, don't you think? It'd fit into jungle/dnb/breaks mixes as well as it'd work perfectly in minimal, dubtechno or dubstep environment. Considering the studio technology at that time such dub tracks are milestones.
Baby I - I - I...
So many memories...A big thank you to Mr.Duxberger 3rd esquire for introducing me to Dub reggae and this fine piece by the master.
Word up to my fellow West Indains
Anyone cruise the streets of San Andreas listening to k-jah looking for trouble in other neighborhoods?
Best song in entire universe
Love this song from GTA San Andreas! :)
it's really hard for me to wrap my head around on how tf is this recorded in the seventies
it was possible back then somehow
@@bon.8819 i mean yes sure it was possible but the use of delay to create rhythm like this was straight up pioneering work
and the mindset must have been somewhat similar to many electronic producers decades later with the way he chopped vocal stabs here and made the drums the center of everything
@@smiauu ya I don't mean to diss you, it's just like - it's amazing how time doesn't really matter when you're in the right place and you got the right things to do shit with - it's fucking awesome as hell
@@bon.8819good music has no expiration date. It simply is. Whereas certain songs and styles and what not are stuck in their respective era. Everything re runs. I dont think time is so linear like we're programed to think it is. Its a cycle. Nothing new under the sun.
Ancient human civilizations were far surpassed the technology we have seen thus far. But we were told humans were digging in our asses and rolling wheels and made up fairy tales about why our world does what it does.
The elite of our world take orders from A.I in which A.I is a consolidation of spirits presenting itself as a computer program. The proof is everywhere.
My point being that although original Dub music is beautiful and one of its kind. It brings up other topics such as humans being enslaved by technology.
Mixing Iron and Clay.
So much influence, so much chill & above all so much joy captured? King.
DUBのマスターピース。
当時の最先端ミュージックだね。
リミックス音楽のオリジネイター。
これがなかったらヒップホップも生まれていなかった。
こんな尖った音楽がカリブの小さい島国から発信されていたんだから、
つくづく凄いよ。
My Interest in Reggae Music started with this Song!!!!

Most underrated artist of all time a true legend and his music will live forever
Don Letts punk rock movie - thank you thank you thank you for making that film!!!
Jacob Miller on vocal Augustus Pablo dub The 45" is still around, both vocal and dub
Ruff collaboration!
The All-Mighty Dub Album That Started A New Genre of Jamaican Music.'Nuff Said.
I wouldn’t say it started the genre because dub music was already a thing in roots reggae in the 70’s. However, this particular mix of Jacob Millers ‘Baby I Love You So’ definitely helped catapult the genre to a higher level, without doubt, but this track and the album it was released on didn’t start the genre for sure.
we should send this song out to space to show how advanced humans are in this universe
Lol right screw Beethoven and Mozart this is real music right here!!
REGGAE CONJURES UP SO MANY AMAZING MENTAL MAGES OF GREAT PLACES,
rest in peace king tubby
So nice, I had to add it to my playlist twice :) Peace and Love to all!

That's sad.

BEST DUB REGGAE EVER CREATED HANDS DOWN!
There are many versions with different names...the original vocal track is "Baby I Love You So" by Jacob Miller and the Rockers All Stars. However this version is the most wicked for sure!

I heard this dub so many years ago but never knew the name of it. I run into a collection of 5CDs of classic jamaican music and there it was. The recording quality is so amazing on big speakers.
this is some real good stuff right there
They don't cut tune like this anymore..
VOX brought me...... 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

King Tubby in the house

Smooooooth dub plate..
It's a sample (remix) but it still stands above anything achieved in (30 years) of hip-hop
I don't understand it. Dub was the part of Reggae that I really liked
Lovers Rock was too MOR, Ska was old and Two Tone turned into Madness. And UK pop Reggae was just pop.
Dub tho': all the effects and THE BASS and even the spirituality.
But mainstream missed all that and focused on a little thing - toasting and that became bloody hip hop, all American
The fuck you talking about?
after all this time I still love this.
extraordinarily good
Es la mejor musica que u o puede tener para antes de irse de este siatema podrido. Augustus es lo máximo ❤
Fire Baby 👌🏽😍
Real Kings don t need castles or servants ..........
For my generation, it was the “Cool Runnings” episode of Miami Vice (1984).
And for my It was K Jah West radio in Gta San Andreas
