1970-1971:
Upsetter Years
Bob Marley, Lee [Scratch] Perry |
These 1970-1971 tracks were some of purest, rootsiest reggae
the Wailers (or anyone for that matter) had ever recorded. Lee
Perry's uncharacteristically laissez-faire production underscores
the music's raw, uncompromising power. Although the Wailers
went on to achieve worldwide commercial success (sans Peter
Tosh and Bunny Wailer), they were never better than in their
pre-island days, and this CD proves it. One quibble: CD needs
better packaging, with liner photos and recording date info.
