Happy Birthday Robbie Shakespear

Robert “Robbie” Shakespear was born on Sept 27, 1953 in Kingston Jamaica. He first started playing in a band as a bassist for The Hippy Boys.  

In 1972, he met Sly who was playing in a band. Their friendship continued when he recommended Sly as a drummer for a one of producer Bunny Lee’s recording sessions. After that session they decided to form a duo and continue working together. Thereafter, they both worked for the late Peter Tosh on his Legalize It album. They continued working with Tosh from 1976 to 1979 recording Equal Rights, Bush Doctor, Mystic Man and Wanted.  

When they left Tosh they opened their own production company Taxi Productions and formed a studio band, The Taxi All Stars. Their first production became a number one hit in Jamaica “Soon Forward” by Gregory Isaccs.

Robbie and his partner Sly, are known as the longest production team and are considered as one of the world’s premier rhythm section (musicians in a popular music musical band or musical ensemble who establish the rhythmic pulse of a song or musical piece, and who lay down the chordal structure). They are also considered the originators of the “Rockers” rhythm.

Here is a list of some of the artists they have worked with Black Uhuru, Chaka Demus & Pliers,
Ini Kamoze, Beenie Man, The Aggrovators, Grace Jones, U Roy, The Mighty Diamonds, The Rolling Stones, Joe Cocker, Herbie Hancock, Maxie Priest, Cindy Lauper, Carly Simon, KRS One, Queen Latifah, and Bob Dylan
