What promises to be one of the Reggae releases of the year, this 2CD collects the best of Lee 'Scratch' Perry's Black Ark productions that originally saw issue in Jamaica as 7" singes during the latter part of the 1970s.
Included among these 44 stunning works are a number of recordings that also breached the UK Pop and Reggae charts, including Hurt So Good, Curly Locks, Sipple Out Deh (aka War In A Babylon), Mr Cop and Police And Thieves, all of which bear the unmistakable hallmarks of Perry's Black Ark sound.
If you only ever buy one Jamaican music CD in your life, this should be it!
