Dub reggae legend Lee "Scratch" Perry delivers a follow-up to his Grammy-nominated collaboration with multi-instrumentalist Steve Marshall and producer John Saxon. Perry created unique, category-defying music. For the uninitiated, Lee "Scratch" Perry was one of the most important figures in the history of reggae music. Not only did he help develop the early reggae sound captured in a number of important recordings, but as an engineer, producer, songwriter, and performer he pioneered a number of innovations, including dub reggae. Here, Lee Perry drew his narrative from his spirituality and the day's global events. Very special guests Keith Richards and George Clinton join Marshall, Reuben White, Tim Hill, Erica Iji, Mark Mason, and Sheridan Tandy.
