On any post, if the link is no longer good, leave a comment if you want the music re-uploaded. As long as I still have the file, or the record, cd, or cassette to re-rip, I will gladly accommodate in a timely manner all such requests.

Dubtember 4

Yesterday's teaming of Dubly Beloved Mad Professor with Lee Perry (the two have collaborated many many times starting with 1987s Lee meets Mad Prof in Dub Chapter 1) led directly to these Scratch offerings.

The sleeve notes for Soundz call this album "the missing link in the Lee Perry legacy". This release was made available by Alvin Raglin, who received the tape from Perry as collateral on a loan that remains unpaid. It contains some first rate groovers. Another of his many achievements besides pioneering reggae & farthering Dub, Lee is right up there with the best Toaster of JA. 

Miss you, Rainford Pipecock Jackxon...

& here's one with Lee & the Upsetters, Sly & Robbie, Mafia & Fluxy from Bunny Lee Studios 1976-1977 that ties the Dubly Beloved & Newcomer to NSS Mafia & Fluxy. It's a boot & kinda weak, more for completists but it's a concept...

  2. Haven't got =Soundzs=, and I try to get all the Scratch that I find (I know, it's useless, can't keep up). Thanks!

    1. Trying to gather all the Scratch you can is a deep deep dive. The man was involved in so many aspects of music: producing, remixing, writing, performing. Glad you found a new one here.
