ALBUMS ON DEB MUSIC FEATURING JUNIOR DELGADO

JUNIOR ALBUMS ON DEB MUSIC

This page is presenting the combination of producer Dennis Brown and singer Oscar Hibbert, better known as Junior “jux” Delgado on Dennis own DEB Music Label. The DEB (aka Dennis Emmanuel Brown) label started in late 1976, in association with Castro Brown, who created the Morpheus label during 1975-1976 in Croydon, south of London.

Their (jnr & dennis) work started with the single “tiction” (an abbreviation of politician) in sept. 1977, produced by Soul Syndicate member Earl "Chinna" Smith on the DEB label…the present discography runs until late 1980, in fact until the time where junior started producing himself (creating his own Incredible Music/Jux label in 1979) and when their common work became less productive (even if junior’s two following albums were issued on Dennis forthcoming label : Yvonne Special).
