Tedious - Junior Mervin (Orchid 7"), though this is a home made extended version with dub.

 

[ringo]

Digging deeper, nyabinghi style

House Of Parliament - Meditations (Black Art 7")

 

[ringo]

Vibrate On - Augustus Pablo (Upsetter 7")

Pablo only recorded four tunes at Perry's Black Ark studio, love this one 'cos you get the best of both artists - Pablo's beautiful melodica drenched in reverb and multi-layered by Perry at the controls.

For real rarities I recommend this great youtube channel: Black Ark Nuggets:
http://www.youtube.com/user/BlackArkNuggets
Lots of 'lost' 7s on there (400 or so)

I heard a monster of a tune on there the other day and it is killing me as Ive forgotten what it was... grrrr...

Post this instead:

Back to 69 for one of Perry's three productions of one of the greatest ever rock steady singers, here proving why he was such a favourite of the British skinheads.

Another Perry skinhead classic

Bunny Wailer takes lead with an exquisite vocal performance, U-Roy provides the DJ cut.

Always been keen on this take...



from the "From the Secret Laboratory" album with African Headcharge/Sherwood.

and this probably still one of my favourites - just for the utter madness and signs of where he was going....

Found this yesterday when I was looking around, some incredible stuff on there (and so much of it)!

So prolific Lee Perry... some misses in amongst that output, but so many hits... Im not a fan of the post-Ark stuff, but even as an old man he puts out an album every year (how much he does on these isn't the point) - he lives and breathes music.

Not many times in history that you get the combination of a brilliant producer having their own unique sounding studio, surrounded by so many great musicians all hungry to record, at a time when a musical scene is bubbling at the perfect temperature - and add little interest in commercial hits + boundary pushing on top of all that. Magic
