Jacob Miller (4 May 1952 – 23 March 1980) was a Jamaican reggae artist and a Rasta. His first recording session was with the famous Clement "Sir Coxsone" Dodd in the late 1960's. While pursuing a prolific solo career, he became the lead singer for reggae group Inner Circle. Miller recorded and toured with Inner Circle until he and his son died in a tragic car accident in 1980. Miller was only 27 years old. 　　Inner Circle was an emerging reggae group made popular playing covers of American Top 40 hits. Band leader Roger Lewis said Jacob Miller was "always happy and jovial. He always made jokes. Everyone liked jokes." Adding Miller as lead singer, the band’s lineup was Roger Lewis on guitar, Ian Lewis on bass, Bernard "Touter" Harvey on keyboards, and Rasheed McKenzie on drums. Coining Miller as Jacob "Killer" Miller, the group continued to build popularity. They signed with Capitol Records in 1976 and released two albums, Reggae Thing and Ready for the World. Their first hit with Jacob Miller was "Tenement Yard", followed by "Tired Fi Lick Weed In a Bush". 　　While recording, Miller continued pursuing a solo career, recording "Forward Jah Jah Children," "Girl Don’t Com" produced by Gussie Clarke, and "I’m a Natty" produced by Joe Gibbs. He earned second place in Jamaica’s 1976 Festival Song competition with the song "All Night ‘Till Daylight" and produced his first solo album in 1978, Dread Dread. While most of Miller’s solo work were backed by Inner Circle members, his preferred rockers style diverged from the tendency of Inner Circle to experiment with other genres, including pop, soul, funk and disco. The track which has brought him the most lasting recognition is the rockers standard "King Tubby Meets The Rockers Uptown" with Augustus Pablo, a dub of "Baby I Love You So," engineered by King Tubby. Other notable tracks with Augustus Pablo included "Keep on Knocking," "False Rasta" and "Who Say Jah No Dread", all produced by Pablo. The album Who Say Jah No Dread featured two versions of each of these tracks; the original and a dub engineered by King Tubby.
