Prince Buster • Sister Big Stuff
Born
May 24 1938, Kingston, Jamaica. Died September 8, 2016, Miami, Florida,
USA. After following original selecter The Great Sebastian he was hired
by Clement "Coxsone" Dodd to help on his Down Beat sound system,
eventually helping Dodd identify the singles that Duke Reid was
importing for his rival system and assisting production of his
recordings. His very first recording session in 1960 produced "Oh
Carolina", one of the all-time classics of Jamaican music, with vocals
by the Folkes Brothers and added musical accompaniment from Count Ossie.
Inventive and innovative for the times, the record still sounds every
bit as exciting. Soon went on to establish his own own Voice Of The
People sound system, record label and shop.
Buster produced countless records featuring either himself or virtually
every top act of the time backed by the Prince Buster's All Stars,
initially Buster's Group, defining from blues/shuffle origins a huge
contribution to the ska era with classic after rousing classic, first on
his Wildbells and Buster Wild Bells labels, followed by Voice Of The
People, Soulsville Center, Islam, Olive Blossom Records, Prince Buster
and Prince Buster Records Shack labels, which were concurrently released
in the UK on Blue Beat, Fab and his own name UK label, moving gradually
into rocksteady and reggae. Prince Buster also enjoyed repeated success
thanks to the undying respect bestowed by generations of ska
revivalists that saw him make a comeback virtually every decade,
starting with the ska revival craze of 1979-80 when UK groups Madness,
The Specials, The Beat, The Selecter and Bad Manners all paid tribute.
