Scobie T,HAS BEEN AROUND SINCE THE EARLY 80's.Moving around sounds and learning the road code of music life. The early days were fun looking back now, starting out as a mic Mc, (dj'ing, riding riddims,toasting) Basically having fun. The serious & settle down time came when i linked Taurus sound back in 83-84. As the youngest member of the sound at the time, this opened up a whole new chapter for me, travelling,meeting people, working on radio & becoming a household name... THANKS TO THE ALMIGHTY FATHER . MICKEY TAURUS (CHIN). DON RAMBO & PAULA. TINY . T .. SUGAR DREAD. POWERJAM 92fm. YOU THE PEOPLE ...... TO BE CONTINUED... A SNIPPET FROM "DON RAMBO". I was an all area man (walk bout bad), the sound that I raved to, worked on and managed for over seven years was called Taurus hi power (the roughest Brixton sound rahhhhh) the owner Mickie Chin, selector Jeremiah, Scobie T, Ricky Ranking, Horseman, Milo, principal, one of London’s top sounds of the 80s, alongside, Coxsone, Saxon, King Tubbys, Jam Down Rockers, Young Lion, Sticksman, I Spy, a ruff sound name Govenor from Balham, a tuff sound name Morpheous from Battersea, Danny King, Neville King, Lord David,a rude boy sound call Small Axe, plus nuff nuff more. In those times everyman a we breadren and dance used to sweet. Taurus ruled the 1980s( a sound conquror) we carved out a place in sound history in South London. A SEVEN SOUND WE FLING DOWN INA SEVEN SOUND CLASH, with two clash cups to we name,(them in me yard all now)Taurus the bull in the ring, we make we name yard and abroad. I was so interested in our music sound culture I became one of the men who run down the next new yard tape, dance tonight, tape reach two days later, so till my collection became one of the biggest and best. The only man to match me then and still now is Bionic (bip) life long tapeman though to today. From 1978 to 2000, I have created a vintage tape collection with every major sound from around the world, big up to Dave Brown from Canada the worlds greatest dancehall tape collector, respect fall like rain on the Great king Stur Gav, Daddy U Roy’s Sound - Josey Wales - Charlie Chaplin - U Brown, Metro Media - Peter Metro, King Jammy’s - Major Worries - Admiral Bailey - Tonto Ire, Jack Ruby sound, Stereo One - lieutenant Stitchie - Daddy Blue - Rickie Stereo - Black Star - with the legend Tiger, Barry G Sound Wa Dat Disco –Black Scorpio – General Trees, Downbeat from New York - Shinehead, Santa Ranks, plus 1000 more. My dj-cj, singers, dancehall, sound clash knowledge is straight out of the Jerry University,(A no string build we up), by the turn of the 90s sounds was getting a big fight,less and less places to play while the law makers turned us into law breakers with noise pollution and drinks licences, soon there was next to no place to play, the big sound systems were being killed off one by one, some of the heavyest sound systems got their wings clipped first, in turn making way for Pirate radio and nightclubs to take over. By the late 1990s our reggae music was contained inside of clubs and controlled areas with radio djs, and a man with some tunes playing the club circuit, the soundmen and there big boxes was gone making way for all new dj this! Dj that! with a small record box full of CD’s,(wa gwan) it used to take two man to lift Taurus record box, things and time start to tell. Around 1996, I started to play on a local popular radio station (power jam 92 fm) and during that time while being dj Don Rambo with a show called selectors night out (vinyl no CD’s), Selectors would get special invitation to appear on my show (giving London a musical treat every time), we promoted dozens of big dances with my promotion company Nice Time Promotions. Five years on, I created a show called THE FRIDAY NIGHT SENTENCE which was for those behind closed doors (prison) and Joe public. The show was a hit, it sell off, and still runs today on Power Jam, leaving Rambo’s mark as a show full of musical niceness with no hype!!. After ten years with powerjam taking the good times with the bad, all my dj friends and colleagues plus a London reggae culture (30 years in the making) never to be repeated, I have taken my years of musical knowledge and put it to full use back where it all came from in sunny sweet Jamaica, Don Rambo me name and it cant NEVER change. One up every time to dj C6 you a gwan well, you father proud of you bad!!!!gwan wap dem.. TO BOOK TAURUS SOUND: LINK SCOBIE .T. 07904415939 Kriss Kriss My Life....
