Lee Perry – Skanking With The Upsetter - Rare Dubs 1971-1974 (Vinyl)
Lee Perry recorded some of the most inspiring, soulful and weird / wild reggae music ever put down on tape. Working through all the manifestations of reggae from Ska to Roots and Dub, where his 1973 ‘Blackboard Jungle’ LP, set the standards, he was an innovator.
This collection of rare and unreleased dubs stems from his 1971-1974 period and features ‘Perry’s Jump Up’ with the Ska-ish up tempo chopping guitar cuts, leading through to organ laden tracks like ‘Roots Rock Dub’. The sound moves to a slowed down rhythm on ‘Perry in Dub’ which would predominate his sound, when in mid 1974 he’d open his own studio at his home in the Washington Gardens district of Kingston.
We hope this selection of lost treasures will add to the jigsaw that makes Mr Perry’s output now spanning over five decades so remarkable.

PRE-ORDERS
Flying Nun only debits your account for a pre-order when it has actually landed in our store. We believe this is fair because supply can often be unreliable - availability and release dates frequently change without notice. Pre-order with Flying Nun and you can cancel any time prior to the product arriving at our store.
OUT OF STOCK ITEMS
Flying Nun only make products available to purchase on our website when they are actually physically held at the store (except pre-orders). Vinyl availability from all local and international suppliers changes on a daily/hourly basis. Therefore, it is not possible to guarantee an online order for many items not currently held in stock.
