Lee Perry And Friends* – Build The Ark

While MOV did a greater than great job on the individual album releases that made up Trojan boxsets "PERRY 1" (highly recomended!!!), PERRY 2 (Open The Gate) and this, PERRY 3 are best listening with the original Porky cuts. They sound nothing but fantastic, the previous set maybe the highlight of his Black Ark period, still these collected 7"s deliver enough great tunes to make the three collections the most worthy before Blood&Fire-/ Sound&Pressure-age releases. Three great shifting-period albums, a marvelous collection of 12" mixes, and this compilation of rare and obscure, often great 7" singles of vocal/ dub & DJ versions. Not upsetting in any way ;-)

Very good quality 1990 (analog) UK Press to this Killer Compilation of rare & hard to find Black Ark singles from 1975 to 1978 (most have been reissue but often digitally remastered)... Having all this at 45rpm would have been the holy grail... Still sound really good, perfect !

A Side Long Long Time
B Side White Belly Rat
C Side Land Of Love
D Side Sons Of Slaves / At The Feast
E Side Green By Incident
F Side Mr. Money Man

Could someone confirm that this has this track on it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w7kaA1V7Xqg ?
Thanks

Mesmerising box set of Lee Perry's early work at the Black Ark studios. This astounding collection bring togther some incredibly rare tracks and artists that cannot be found on any other Reggae albums. Then there is of course Perry's fantastic house band The Upsetters and the great man himself with some legendary tracks. Trojan re-released this as a triple disc box set at a very reasonable price, so it's well worth hunting down, particularly if you are a fan of the Master & genius that is Lee 'Scratch' Perry but also if you just love Reggae. There is wealth of outstanding material across this box set, covering all sub-genres of Jamaican music with some particularly fine Dubs.
