Prince Far I & The Arabs
Cry Tuff Dub Encounter Chapter 1
Repress! 'Cry Tuff Dub Chapter One' was produced by Prince Far I aided and abetted by Adrian Sherwood. The album is one of the first collaborations by Sherwood and Far I and also one of their strongest. Far I's rhythms were always powerful and formed the backdrop to some of his most popular deejay hits always using Jamaica's top session musicians. 'Cry Tuff Dub Chapter One' is no exception with Sly Dunbar and Flabba Holt as the rhythmic powerhouse, Crucial Tony on guitar (Tony was later to become one of Creation Rebel) and Doctor Pablo on melodica. It was out of these early Far I records that the foundations for both Creation Rebel and the Dub Syndicate were laid.
