Clive Chin
|
Clive Chin is a legendary Jamaican record producer whose work includes seminal recordings by The Wailers, Dennis Brown, Lee Perry and Black Uhuru, among others. He began working at Randy's Record Store, his father's business, and began helping make the associated studio, Randy's Studio 17, one of the most important Jamaican studios of the early 1970s.
Chin's first major commercial success was Java, an international hit by Augustus Pablo. After his family business moved to New York City, Chin spent some fifteen years running a Jamaican restaurant in Queens. He began producing again in 1998 (see 1998 in music).
