"Anyone with a passing interest in reggae has heard of Lee Perry also
importance to the history of Jamaican music in particular, and recorded
music in general, is second to none. He has made an incredible
contribution to the development of reggae as a producer, arranger and
writer and was the inspiration behind many of the key movements in the
development of the music. In a business overcrowded with superlatives
talents. Lee Perry is, beyond question, a genuine genius and has been
responsible for creating some of the greatest, most complex and
seriously mystical music ever to come out of Jamaica.
For the six years it was operating his Black Ark recording studio set
standards that have never been bettered: it was there that Scratch moved
his music in inventive and innovative directions that no-one else has,
even now, thought to consider. Freed from the strictures of paying for
studio time on an hourly rate his music became increasingly intense,
creative tension at the Black Ark kept on mounting, Scratch started to
become increasingly out of control. His music was no longer selling well
in Jamaica and the overseas record companies were bewildered with the
on the sound systems, the natural home of the musical renegade, in
Jamaica, England, America and Canada. Sound system followers understood
where The Upsetter was coming from, and where he was going to, even if
the general public and record company executives failed to so.
The exclusive mixes showcased on this release have never been heard
before outside of sound system dances. Some will be familiar through
cajoled in hitherto unexplored and previously unimagined directions.
The album comes in a stark, striking black and white design with
hitherto unseen photographs and lots of archive material. We have also
version side of the single, with the rhythm dubbed into oblivion, does
not feature on the album and the single comes in its own 'Upsetters
Records' picture sleeve."
