Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry - Disco Devil Vol. 1 (5 Classic Discomixes From The Black Ark Studio 1977-9)
Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry assembles five extended discomixes cut at the legendary Black Ark between 1977 and 1979. Disco Devil Vol. 1 captures Perry at full tilt, stretching rhythms into widescreen dub excursions that foreground bass, echo and versioning.
Opening with the original Upsetter 12" mix of ‘Disco Devil’, the set moves through killer cuts including ‘Lion A De Winner’, Winston Watson’s ‘Dispensation’, and Junior Murvin’s ‘Roots Train’. Lord Creator’s ‘Such Is Life’ appears in a previously unreleased full-length discomix, adding further weight to an already essential selection.
Drawn from a fertile late-70s run, these mixes highlight Perry’s instinct for space, pressure and studio experimentation, where each track mutates into its own dub ecosystem.

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.
