Lee Perry - Dubstrumentals 2CD Trojan (Kung Fu Meets The Dragon, Return Of The Wax, Musical Bones)
Three Classic 'Black Ark era' Lee Perry Albums over 2CDs!
- The Mighty Upsetter - Kung Fu Meets The Dragon
- Lee Perry & The Upsetters - The Return Of The Wax
- Vin Gordon & The Upsetters - Musical Bones
After serving his musical apprenticeship at Studio One, Lee Scratch Perry made his mark as Jamaicas most innovative and eccentric producers, issuing his musical creations on his Upsetter imprint from 1968 onward.
The opening of his own studio, Black Ark, in 1973 enabled him to push back the boundaries of reggae to previously unknown limits and for the next six years he produced some of the most exciting sounds ever to see issue on the island.
This 2 CD set draws together three ground breaking albums issued by Lee Perry in the mid 1970s.
All three collections highlighted instrumental works and were only released in the UK in limited numbers, with original copies now highly prized collectors items.
Kung-Fu Meets The Dragon, which has a strong sound track feel and features Augustus Pablo on several tracks, finds Lee Perry inspired by the Kung Fu craze then sweeping the world, Return Of The Wax is similarly inspired and Musical Bones features top hornsman, Vin Gordon delivering a series of jazz-influenced dub-reggae sides.
