Lee Perry - Black Ark in Dub - Vinyl LP
Limited Edition Translucent Silver Vinyl
2024 reissue
Living reggae legend Rainford Hugh Perry, better known as Lee “Scratch” Perry, made his initial impact performing at Studio One in the ska era, was instrumental in Joe Gibbs’ early success, made radical impressions with the most innovative work of Bob Marley & The Wailers, and was one of the leading Jamaican producers in the 1970s.
He built the Black Ark studio in 1973 behind his family’s home in the Washington Gardens neighborhood of Kingston. Not hindered by the somewhat rudimentary set-up and its basic equipment, Lee Perry found himself building top-notch productions, known for their creative production and recording techniques. This particular sound was a source of inspiration for later generations of music producers.
At the end of the 1970s, he burned the studio to the ground. This event, preceded by increasingly bizarre and erratic behavior, ended an era of creativity and production highlights. In the 1980’s he kept alow profile, while the world re-discovered the sheer quality and brilliance of his music.
