"I recently purchased a Pro-Ject Debut Carbon DC turntable from you, and I am really impressed with the level of detail and customer service I’ve received so far. The instruction folder is a great touch, and your excellent site gave me tons of info and insight into buying and setting up the turntable. Bravo!" - P. Cuffari
"Wow. I just got the turntable. It is amazing. I love the bags, I love the fact that I got it literally less than 24 hours after ordering, I love the cartoon easy set up pics, the stickers, record cleaner brush, and the sound is great for the money. SOOO Happy!! Thanks guys and gals--you just created a customer for life."- R. Montgomery

Original 2005 Lab review:
Probably the most famous album billed directly to Augustus Pablo, East Of The River Nile is like a greatest hits collection for him circa late 70s. The tracks were recorded everywhere from Randy's to the Black Ark, and represent some of his most famous instrumentals & dubs for a variety of producers. While most of these tracks can rightly be found in other places, the versions here are always unique mixes or later/alternate takes. For instance this album's excellent version of "East of The River Nile" is completely different from the one we have on 7". A bit slower, with patiently dubbed melodica, some cool electronic washes and a stripped down version of that famous drum and bass. I almost like this one better. The big "Africa 1983" is also here in full instrumental version, as well as recognizable cuts like the pounding "Jah Light" and meditative "Chant To Jah." Easily one of Pablo's finest moments, East Of The River is a strong listen all the way through. Recommended.
- official reissue of 1978 roots dub masterpiece from producer + melodica / keyboard player Augustus Pablo
- black vinyl pressing (please note: actual pressing color and packaging may differ from mock-up photo)
- original release year: 1977
- music label: Shanachie 2026
