The song is about Ali Baba with the 40 thieves...but Rastafari don't go to the barber and the DJ's decided to just use dat fact seen....Raspect.

I shot the barber, but Tom took the blame. That's what friends are for! Hope he's not feeling too bitter about his life sentence.

not a sample. re-cut done by Jackie Edwards for Bunny Lee in '74-'75. there are loads and loads of "Barber" variations of this track, it was a popular theme at the time, kind of like the many "Drifter" cuts from around the same time period. you could have probably played an entire night at a dance with just "Barber" and "Drifter" rhythms.
the original John Holt "Ali Baba" was finally given it's own dub mix about this time, too - original (1969) did not have one.
