Scratch Perry-The Heptones-Play on Mr Music

[@elektrovolt]

Rest in piece, mr Perry. May the phaser warble wildly and the space echo repeat endlessly.

[@elizabethhann4028]

[22 July 2022] Amen. My thoughts exactly.

[@ReggaeAnders]

This clip contains one of the best pieces of musical history ever caught on film IMO! I still haven't found any evidence that this tune was actually released but I'm still hoping... The whole Roots Rock Reggae series is filled with amazing musical moments that would have been nothing but legends hadn't it been for the eager camera of Jeremy Marre. All respects to Mr. Marre for this and all the rest of his extensive work on great music outside the mainstream

[@bsadewitz]

I have never heard the actual audio for the clip before!

I didn't knew that tune either before. but I just had a 7'' copy (japan press of 2020). This is pure genius I love it❤

[@tftkadawidalle-hp8wt]

Thank you for these beautiful sentiments.

My nephew here in the UK studied sound engineering a production at college - it brought a big smile to my face when he told me one of the modules he took involved the works of Lee Perry.

[@duckblek8158]

It's a blessing to know Lee Scratch was committed to coordinating group work with studio excellence. Reggae was shaped in the studio. Bravo to the man. MHSRIP.

[@dannieoffield5012]

This is Jamaican history. Scratch Perry could only do his thing by being there at that time, place, and situation. Wish I was there. Peace..❤

Long Live Scratch!!!! And long Live the powerful energy that is Jamaica!!!

[@DaveAdkins]

The phaser is Mu-tron bi-phase. These usually have a blue or purple finish but I think came with white sheet that could be laid over showing preset settings. In this vid he is using the Super Phasing sheet but there were others like stereo and two speed.

[@MrForttunate]

this is priceless , all of the documentaries i've seen on the orgins and hstory of jamaican music have been done by forigners , this music was looked down upon by jamaicans who lived above torrington bridge , AND NOW......

[@gregbattles4742]

RIP BROTHA. THANKS FOR YOUR GODLY SPIRITED WITHIN YO MUSIC. BLAKA ALWAYS LOV A MESS OF BASE..

[@vincentlopez3064]

Goosebumps as they fade the music and away from the ark and start showing the political posters.....realizing the political and economic hell they were all living through,...this beautiful music being made RIGHT in the midst of the madness of those times in jamaica...especially KIingston

[@marcoskuhne]

A hell of a documentary this one!!

[@PAULLONDEN]

Hearing Lee Perry for the first time in '79 was a revelation. Personally ,I go only for his pre 1983 stuff though. Him moving to Babylon didn't do much for his great art. Making a long nose to Covid probably did him in , he kept on mingling with his many groupies. May he for ever sail his Ark .

[@santiulla]

This video was recorded on 1976. It's 2021 and roots still playing.

[@jamtalawah2231]

If only we had more like Scratch - I am sorry if I offend anyone but I can't stand what happening to Reggae music now. I wish all these newbies artists/producers would realise that its is called Reggae music for a reason.

[@santiulla]

@@jamtalawah2231 what happen to every kind of music.

[@Nachito667]

too bad they never released this song... I heard it was for some kind of commercial. Cool to see the congos singing backup. Irie riddim, true black ark sound.

Also if ya dig and enjoyed this video 😀 you may also enjoy the reggae band Christafari and they are really groovy folks and friends and hope ya check out their music and also the song " Most of All " By Glenn Kaiser and Where Roses Grow Live by Rez Band Awesome songs check them out. I remember hearing the song by Led Zepp " In My Time of Dyin " during my drug years and made me think about death and Jesus. Then a hippy friend that dug Jesus told me more of Jesus love and forgiveness and how I could also know Jesus love. So in 1981 I cried out to Jesus and wow man He came into my life and I had and have so much joy and peace and now know that through Jesus when I die I will be with Him in Heaven. Hey Jesus loves each of you also and yall can know Him if you are at all open. Just cry out to Him and a good question to ask yourself if you were to die today would you go to heaven ? And if yes why ? To find out more please read the Gospel of John in the Bible or check out the movie on KZbin. 😀
