Notes
-----
Ominously known as "The Dark Prince of Reggae," Keith Hudson was born into
a musical family in Kingston, Jamaica in 1946. His musical education began
as Hudson worked as a sort of roadie for Skatalite and Jamaican trombone king
Don Drummond. By age 21, Hudson, who had been trained as a dentist, sunk his
earnings into his own record label, Inbidimts, and had a hit with Ken Boothe's
recording of "Old Fashioned Way." Not long after this chart success, the
suddenly hot Hudson was producing some of the biggest names (and soon-to-be
biggest names) in reggae -- John Holt, Delroy Wilson, Alton Ellis, and the
great toasters U-Roy and Dennis Alcapone, all of whom benefited from what would
be Hudson's trademark production style: groove-centered, bass/drum-dominated,
lean and mean stripped-down riddims. By the mid-'70s, Hudson began releasing
more solo work, hitting paydirt from the start with his 1974 debut, Entering the
Dragon and his intense second record, Flesh of My Skin, an ominous, dark record
that earned Hudson his title as reggae's "Dark Prince." In 1976, Hudson relocated
to New York City and worked pretty much nonstop, producing as well as recording
solo records up until 1982. He succumbed to lung cancer in 1984, at age 38,
robbing reggae of one its greatest, most adventurous, and unhearalded producers
and performers.- www.allmusic.com
