People Funny Boy: The Upsetter Singles 1968-1969

First extensive anthology of Lee Perry's early productions. This collection, which brings together the recordings that launched Perry's career as an independent record producer, features a fascinating mixture of styles, ranging from the soulful rhythms of rocksteady to the dynamic sounds of boss reggae, with the resulting mix not only providing a compelling listening experience, but also a fascinating insight into the early musical development of one of Jamaican music's most influential, innovative and successful music makers.
