Lloyd & Glen

Reggae singer Lloyd Robinson recorded a number of songs for Studio One starting in 1963. He later went on to cut sides for many Jamaican producers including Duke Reid, Lloyd Daley, Sir JJ and more. Robinson was a member of the late '60s rock-steady group the Tartans with Cedric Myton (who would later start the Congos), sang duets with Glen Brown and was half of the duo Lloyd and Devon, which had a hit for Derrick Morgan's Hop label, "Red Bum Ball." Glen Brown Glenhope "Glen" Brown began his musical career as a vocalist and Augustus Pablo-influenced melodeon player, recording solo tracks and singing harmony on tracks produced by Prince Buster, Sir Coxsone Dodd, Leslie Kong, Derrick Herriot. His greatest success has come as the founder and owner of his reggae and dub labels, Pantomine and South East Music, and the producer of tracks by U Roy, Gregory Isaacs, Big Youth, Prince Jazzbo, Johnny Clarke and Little Roy. The heavy rhythms of his dub tracks resulted in his being known as "The rhythm master" While lack of funds resulted in his early recordings initially limited to one hundred copies, they've become increasingly available. Tunes recorded between 1969 and 1976 were reissued on the 1995 album, "The Way To Mt. Zion", while tracks recorded with King Tubby between 1973 and 1979 were compiled on the 1996 collection, "Termination Dub". Currently residing in New York, Brown remains active as a songwriter and producer.
