When Lee “Scratch” Perry broke away from “Coxsone” Dodd in 1966, he establishedhis own Upsetter persona not before a brief partnership with Joe Gibbs. The newnickname was chosen by Perry to attack Dodd for mistreating him during his years atStudio One. The righteous avenger not only created his own Upsetter label in 1968 butalso his headquarters, the Upsetter record shop and, of course, his own group ofbacking musicians - The Upsetters. This is the reissue of the famed album featuringScratch clad in green velveteen sided by two attractive young women. A perfect blendof Jamaican gangsta look and spaghetti western sound that would soon make him famous when his success withReturn Of Django set his rising star on an irreversible trajectory.Track listing - Side A: 1.
