== Biography ==
He was born in [[Saint Andrew Parish, Jamaica|St. Andrew]], Jamaica and learned to play the [[organ (music)|organ]] in Kingston College School. It was at that point an unnamed girl lent him the melodica. Fascinated by the instrument, Pablo rarely put it down. He also met [[Herman Chin Loy]], who after working at his cousin [[Leslie Kong]]'s ''Beverley's'' record shop, had set up his own ''Aquarius'' store in [[Half Way Tree]]. Swaby recorded early tracks including "Higgi Higgi", "East of the River Nile", "Song of the East", and "The Red Sea" between 1971 and 1973 for Chin-Loy's [[Aquarius Records (record label)|Aquarius Records]].<ref name="Larkin">Larkin, Colin: "The Virgin Encyclopedia of Reggae", 1998, Virgin Books, ISBN 0-7535-0242-9</ref> Chin Loy had previously used the name Augustus Pablo generically for keyboard instrumentals recorded by [[Lloyd Charmers]] and [[Glen Adams]],<ref name="Barrow">Barrow, Steve & Dalton, Peter: "Reggae: The Rough Guide", 1997, Rough Guides, ISBN 1-85828-247-0</ref><ref>[http://www.reggae-vibes.com/concert/augpablo/augpablo.htm Article : In memory of.. Augustus Pablo]</ref>
"East of the River Nile", a unique blend of East Asian and Jamaican sounds, became a moderate hit. He soon joined [[Now Generation]] ([[Mikey Chung]]'s band) and played the keyboard with them while his friend [[Clive Chin]] began his own career as a record producer. Pablo and Chin recorded "Java" (1972) together,<ref name="Larkin" /> as soon as Pablo quit Now Generation and Clive was able to get the studio time. The [[instrumental]] was a massive hit, and launched Pablo's solo career. He recorded with Chin and various others, including [[Leonard Chin]], his uncle, and [[Lee Perry]]. He scored another smash hit with "My Desire" ([[John Holt (singer)|John Holt]]).
Pablo formed [[Record label|labels]] Hot Stuff, Message and Rockers (named after his brother's [[Sound system (DJ)|soundsystem]], Rockers), and released a steady stream of well-received instrumentals, mostly versions of older hits from [[Studio One (record label)|Studio One]]. In spite of his success with Rockers, Pablo's 1974 album, ''[[This Is Augustus Pablo]]'' was recorded with Clive and [[Pat Chin]]. This was followed by a collaboration with the legendary reggae engineer [[King Tubby]], 1975's ''[[Ital Dub]]''.
In the later 1970s, Pablo produced a steady stream of hits, including the hit "Black Star Liner" ([[Fred Locks]]). He also worked with [[Dillinger (musician)|Dillinger]], [[Norris Reid]], [[I-Roy]], [[Jacob Miller]], [[Te -Track]], [[The Immortals (band)|The Immortals]], [[Paul Blackman]], [[Earl Sixteen]], [[Roman Stewart]], [[Lacksley Castell]], [[The Heptones]], [[Bob Marley]], [[Ricky Grant]], [[Delroy Williams]], [[Junior Delgado]], [[Horace Andy]] and [[Freddy McKay]]. This period was eventually commemorated with critically acclaimed LPs including ''[[King Tubby Meets Rockers Uptown]]'' (1976) and [[Hugh Mundell]]'s classic ''[[Africa Must be Free by 1983]]''. This was followed by ''[[East of the River Nile]]'' (1978), ''[[Original Rockers]]'' (1979) and ''[[Rockers Meets King Tubby in a Firehouse]]'', another acclaimed hit album.

In the 1980s, Pablo's career slowed significantly. In 1980, he could be seen in the documentary [[D.O.A. (1980 film)]]. He had begun to establish an American audience and released ''Rising Sun'' in 1986 to good reviews and sales. Pablo also produced memorable hits, including "[[Ragamuffin Year]]" ([[Junior Delgado]]), "[[Humble Yourself]]" ([[Asher & Tremble]]) and "Far Far Away" (Ricky Grant). In addition, Pablo toured extensively throughout the world, making a memorable live album in [[Tokyo]] in 1987. That same year, ''[[Rockers Come East]]'' re-established his career and he began to release a series of critically acclaimed though somewhat inaccessible albums in the 1990s, including ''[[Blowing With the Wind]]'' and also producing several, such as ''[[Night & Day (single)|Night & Day]]'' ([[Dawn Penn]]) and ''[[Jah Made Them All]]'' ([[Yami Bolo]]).
Augustus Pablo died as a result of a collapsed lung on 18 May 1999.<ref>{{
