Releases from artist / Veröffentlichungen von : Lee Scratch Perry & The Upsetters

few artists enjoy a legacy that involves a re-engineering of the very genre in which they work. lee “scratch” perry is such an artist. as a pioneer of dub reggae perry viewed the mixing console as musical instrument in its own right. the influence of his revolutionary approach has been felt world-wide and into genres far beyond reggae. his 1976 effort, super ape, is considered a masterpiece of this or any genre. working with the upstetters at his black ark studio perry created a sound with such a lasting appeal that the rough guide includes super ape as one of their 100 essential reggae releases. this limited edition reissue contains a 22x22 inch super ape poster.

a double vinyl compilation of the most frequently sampled reggae classics.
