On any post, if the link is no longer good, leave a comment if you want the music re-uploaded. As long as I still have the file, or the record, cd, or cassette to re-rip, I will gladly accommodate in a timely manner all such requests.

I Get so Agrovated





I don't know if anyone really gives a flying fuck about stuff like this, but I guess it’s just one of my pet peeves??? All over the interweb & even on discogs (where they have the cover artwork – see mine below), Kaya Dub is listed as The Aggrovators. Just read the bleeping cover, brutha. A-G-R-O-V-A-T-O-R-S. The Agrovators or Aggrovators (both spellings are correct & album specific – they are not misprints) had a storied career at Third World under both nom.

Kaya Dub is The Agrovators: Bunny Lee producin' & arrangin'; Prince Jammy mixin' & engineerin'; Earl 'Chinna' Smith on lead guitar; both Carl Harvey & Jeffrey Chung on rhythm guitars; Keith Sterling piano; Sly Dunbar & Robbie Shakespeare doing their usual drums & bass.

Irrespective of any peevishness on my part, this is a fantastic treasure. Just look at its provenance.

The Agrovators – Kaya Dub, Third World TWS939, 1978.
