The idea behind this recording session was to emulate the great King Tubby, whose style it was to let musicians run wild in the studio then engineer the mix in post-production. The musicians never knew what the final outcome would sound like. However, to take this a step further, King Rubby took the live, effected mixes and ran them back into the musicians’ headphones so that they could not only play off each other, but also the King Rubby effected mix.
