Huey has a King Tubby block party to mark what would have been his 80th birthday. The dub pioneer is arguably the most influential producer to have come out of Jamaica, and as Don Letts explains in the new documentary Dub Revolution: The Story Of King Tubby, his techniques still have an influence on music to this day.

Away from King Tubby, Huey celebrates another pioneer, dedicating this week's players' ball to Adrian Belew, who has played guitar on records by Talking Heads, Tom Tom Club, David Bowie, King Crimson, Paul Simon, Herbie Hancock, Laurie Anderson and Nine Inch Nails.
