Tubby began working as a disc cutter for producer Duke Reid in 1968. The sound also launched the career of U-Roy, its featured toaster. It became a crowd favourite due to the high quality sound of his equipment, exclusive releases and Tubby's own echo and reverb sound effects, at that point something of a novelty. Tubby eventually formed his own sound system, Tubby's Hometown Hi-Fi, in 1958. In 1961–62, he built his own radio transmitter and briefly ran a pirate radio station playing ska and rhythm and blues which he soon shut down when he heard that the police were looking for the perpetrators. It was here that he built large amplifiers for the local sound systems.
Tubby owned an electrical repair shop on Drumalie Avenue, Kingston, that fixed televisions and radios. As a talented radio repairman, Tubby soon found himself in great demand by most of the major sound systems of Kingston, as the tropical weather of the Caribbean island (often combined with sabotage by rival sound system owners) led to malfunctions and equipment failure. King Tubby's first interaction with the music industry came in the late 1950s with the rising popularity of Jamaican sound systems, which were to be found all over Kingston and which were developing into enterprising businesses. He knew how the circuits worked and what the electrons did. Singer Mikey Dread stated, "King Tubby truly understood sound in a scientific sense. He is often cited as the inventor of the concept of the remix that later became ubiquitous in dance and electronic music production. Tubby's studio work, which saw him elevate the role of the mixing engineer to a creative fame previously only reserved for composers and musicians, would prove to be influential across many genres of popular music. *CYRIL X.Osbourne Ruddock (28 January 1941 – 6 February 1989), better known as King Tubby, was a Jamaican sound engineer who influenced the development of dub in the 1960s and 1970s. *KING KONG ~ Rocky Road + ASTON BARETT & THEUNLIMITED ~ Rocky + Lady *MAJOR WORRIES ~ Twist A Rock + KING TUBBY & BOBBY DIGITAL ~ Version *MICHAEL EXODUS & IMMIROOTS SOUND SYSTEM feat RANKING FOX ~ Keep Dub ~🤬😤BLOCKED VIDEOS (Copyrights Control)😖😡~ (Subscribe, Like & Comment ~ MaNy tHaNkS, oNe LoVe) ~ Facebook Group ~ "ahtomsYOUTUBEchannel (Reggae Vinyls Collection)" ~ ~ Facebook Page ~ "Ahtoms Youtube Channel" ~
