Lee Perry & The Upsetters - Revolution Dub [LP] (Limited Orange 180 Gram Audiophile Vinyl Critics Have Described This LP As One Of Perry's Most Important & Exemplary Albums Numbered To 1000 Import)

Revolution Dub is a studio album by Jamaican's legendary dub producer Lee Perry and his studio band the Upsetters and it was originally released in 1975 . The album, which features nine pared-down dubs, was the last in a line of releases that year in which Perry began exploring the possible studio techniques at his recently opened studio Black Ark in Kingston, Jamaica. In addition to making early use of a drum machine, the album is characterised by unpredictable drops in the beat, drastic stereo panning and samples of dialogue from television series, particularly British sitcoms, while Perry sings on the album in an eccentric falsetto and portrays different personas, including television characters from Kojak and Doctor on the Go. Critics and authors have described Revolution Dub as one of Perry's most important and exemplary albums, although some consider it one of his more overlooked productions. The use of sampled television dialogue has been highlighted by several writers as innovative for predating the sampler and for its unusual context, while the album was later influential on artists including Stevie Wonder and Holger Czukay. Revolution Dub is now available as a numbered limited edition of 1000 copies on orange colored vinyl.
