RELEASE DATE
4/7/2017
2017 digipak edition of a landmark dub record from legendary reggae producer
Lee 'Scratch' Perry
, using a combination of established collaborators and new musicians (
The Upsetters
,
Ricky and Bunny
). Originally released in 1981. Also features:
Johnny Lover
,
The Towerchanters
,
The Blue Bell
,
Val Bennett
,
Brad Osborne
,
Devion Iron
, and
The Black Arks
. "... an assemblage of pulsating organs, distorted guitar scratches, and deep bass. Vocals come in the form of the standard dub production fragments ('Curly Dub') and occasional Rasta philosophizing ('Who You Gonna Run To,' 'When Jah Come'). The most striking moment is 'Tighten Up.' Here, an infectious tune with banal lyrics and fine groove is transformed through Perry's absurd production methods. Warped beyond belief (and anything resembling conventional logic), it's as if Perry placed the entire track underwater just to see what it sounded like, then sat back, satisfied with his creation. Only the saxophone escapes. The vocalists sound like alien versions of
Alvin & the Chipmunks
have landed on the island of Jamaica. Nothing else on Scratch & Company quite matches it. . . . fine music for those looking deeper into the producer's catalog." --
