Black Ark Players Black Ark In Dub

Black Ark In Dub is another piece of Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry’s limitless musical puzzle. Featuring a bedrock of deep and heavy rhythms recorded at the Black Ark studio just before its demise. Black Ark In Dub features bass heavy, spooky dub deconstructions of ‘Jah Love Is Sweeter’, ‘Ethiopia’, ‘Lion A De Winner’, ‘Open The Gate’, ‘Guideline,’ and ‘Mr Money Man’, along with an embellished dub version of Ras Keatus I ‘Dreadlocks I’ and the much sought after ‘Guidance’ a longime Jah Shaka Sound System killer exclusive (to this set). Originally released in 1981, the hard to find Black Ark In Dub remains a frozen sonic timepiece, captured at the beginning of the end of one era and poised at the start of another. Black Ark Vol. 2 (the follow up to this classic set) will be released simultaneously, which is a treat for dub and Scratch Perry fans.
