After having moved from Jamaica to The Magic City in the summer of 1977, Pluto saw the future. Rhythm Of The City fully expresses this forward thrust, where technology, nightlife, love and urban vibes mingle in an exciting vision of a past future. Recorded at Earthman Studio in Miami, and produced by Geoffrey Chung, the album overthrows the normal rules of reggae, mixing it together with funk, soul and disco, and giving birth to what Pluto himself describes as urban reggae folklore.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePluto Shervington\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLeighton “Pluto” Shervington was born in Kingston, Jamaica on August 13th 1950. Determined to be a musician for as long as he remembers, Pluto built his very first guitar with his own hands, and in 1966, at the age of sixteen, joined his first band: The Presidents. After The Presidents came The Hurricanes, and in 1968 he became a member of the showband Tomorrow’s Children.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter releasing hits like I Man Bitter, Ram Goat Liver, Dat, Your Honour and I Man Born Ya, Pluto climbed the charts, both in Jamaica and overseas, and established his solo career, selling tens of thousands of copies with every album release. In 1972 he founded Sound Associates Limited, a recording studio which provided radio, TV and advertising agencies with original jingles produced on a sixteen-track reel to reel recorder and a twenty-four-track mixing board which Pluto had bought from Byron Lee.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1977, due to political shifts in Jamaica, Pluto moved to Miami, where he formed Pluto \u0026amp; Co. The band played regularly for eighteen years at Sunday’s On The Bay in Key Biscayne, Florida, and in June 1982 toured throughout England, Wales, Scotland, and Ireland. In August 1984, Pluto returned to Jamaica on tour, performing at the Reggae Sunsplash in Montego Bay. Through the years, Pluto continued his musical career between the United States and Jamaica, and is yet to stop experimenting and exploring what he can do with reggae music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFirst ever official reissue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLP includes insert featuring lyrics and liner notes with artist bio and album story\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePressed on black vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e ARLP002 -Artist-Pluto Shervington\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: FUNK\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat Detail: LP Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandling Note: **Please allow an additional 5 business days for this item's shipment.**\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 1\/19\/23\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInternal ID: JIT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Love Vinyl Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49254135234802,"sku":"GLCOCW-UP0N-P7","price":33.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0830\/7018\/9810\/files\/pluto-shervington-rhythm-of-the-city_yMxMa.jpg?v=1779634030","url":"https:\/\/discandvinyl.com\/products\/rhythm-of-the-city","provider":"DiscandVinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
