Days of Youth...Day 4

But of all the Youth I encountered, this one is a Monument.  

 

This one I didn't stumble on, I went blindly searching it out. I decided the Universe was trying to ask me something ("What else dat Yout' been up to dese days?"). So I dug up his discography & was seriously blown away by this 2xCD chunk o' greatness.

The Great Upsetter Rainford Perry died on August 29, 2021. His career spanned more than sixty glorious years. He was responsible for innumerable works of transcendental beauty & is a major founder of both reggae & Dub. The stream of consciousness that flowed from his mind & mouth is genius.

Now the words have ceased. But Youth has done the supreme tribute to those words, making a record of respect for Perry's greatness, sending him outward on a Spaceship to Mars.

Dub on, Pipecock, Dub on!
