If you want to experience Lee Scratch Perry's genius. ..listen to the ENTIRE Heart of the Congos album by the trio The Congos.

Listen the album from a good set.

Pure genius imo.

Most folks just listen the track Fisherman. Dig deeper and you will appreciate someone who is not a superficial musician.

Perry is to reggae as Herb ie Hancock is to jazz.

Scatch remind me of Phil Spector. Have some very colourful sound and crazy as heck but are musically out of this world on the production side.
