Lee Perry - Revolution Dub

8.0 - Jamaica - 1975

One of the best dub albums ever made, even though – or perhaps because – it’s an exercise in half-assed lunacy. I’m pretty sure it’s just a very stoned Scratch making some excellent dubs with the television blaring in the background. Occasionally, Perry opts to sing (as on the excellent closer "Rain Drops"), but mostly he just jabbers along to whatever is on the TV ("My name is Kojak!"). Some neat palimpsests, too.
