Lee Scratch Perry on BBC Radio to celebrate 40 years of Trojan
May 29th 2007 07:51
Since the explosion of the web, the BBC have given good exposure to reggae music, and well it should, with the place reggae has in UK music. Recently, BBC 6 had a weekend of Trojan to celebrate 40 years of the record company.
One of the features over this weekend was a blether, and it is a blether, by the Upsetter Lee Scratch Perry. For a limited time you can download his musings from the BBC 6 website for the weekend of Trojan.
It is an interesting ramble, by a man that is a little bit eccentric. He gives some insights into where he and reggae are coming from, as well as some great opinions on some of the great reggae artists. Not to mention explaining what some of the reggae songs were actually about!
Personally, I would have preferred if the person who was asking the questions (I'm assuming there were some?) had have stayed in the audio, but it is still worth the listen. His giggling is priceless and his big noting himself isn't offensive, but reflects the passion he has had for music.
