After more than a 150 releases as producer and/or artist, he creator of Reggae and Dub returns with this new album called Panic In Babylon. It can be described as a collection of spontaneous poetry in which some of the texts, made up of rough, direct, almost prophetic words, clash together with other lighter texts, for example a remake of the famous Inspector Gadget. All of it realized with lucidity, realism and a sense of humour that will seduce long-time fans as well as anyone who wishes to discover a sincere and committed artist, whose genius knows no limits. Composed by D.J. Startrek and his combo The White Belly Rats (Dj Startrek on bass, Lax Delux on guitar and Senator Spahni on drums), produced by P. Brunkow and masterized at Sterling Sound, Panic in Babylon is, according to the few lucky ones who have already had a chance to taste it, the essence of the New Dub of the third millenium !!! To top it all, the solo on the title Panic in babylon by the great Rico Rodriguez, the undisputed trombone master of Reggae.

Unbeatable - Lee Perry is the cockyman!
This is a bit more uptempo than the other Lee Perry records I own. It was not produced by the man himself, probably because he has finally gone completely bonkers and is unable to do the serious side of the work (I base this assumption on hearing the lyrics on this album, and on seeing him a couple of years ago where I decided he was either totally insane or pretending to be. I suspect it's a bit of both).Anyway, I digress. This album is now my favourite reggae/dub album of all time, and it is currently my favourite CD. The production is very slick, quite poptastic, but it has loads of the usual crazy delay effects that you expect from dub. It also has some modern touches, e.g. putting Lee's voice through a 'Cher' style vocoder.The lyrics are hilarious and brilliant. The tunes are amazing (quality live playing as well as production). I can't recommend this highly enough.My only criticism is their choice of the 1st song on the CD. Probably selected because it's the most up-tempo, but it is far from the best, so seems a strange way to kick off the CD.If you're a fan of classic Lee Perry, you'll love this, and if you're not, it's not a bad place to start listening to the original reggae loon...

King of reggae
This superhuman produces sounds that derive from his interaction with the Divine. This statement the great 'LSP' does confirm himself and is evident through the positive vibration that he creates. Music that is harmonic with wisdom and prophecy and truly sets your soul on fireLong live 'Lee Scratch Perry' the godfather of reggae, music for the healing of the soul.

Album of the year (really!)
I go through spates of buying music looking for something new. Having some old Lee Perry albums, and liked but never really rated them. I tagged this on the end of an order on the basis of the George Clinton remix, but had low expectations. I am blown away - this is a musically excellent and coherent album. The variety is stunning, yet album fits together without a weak track. Although the reggae/dub heritage is there, even those whom dislike reggae will find this a joyful experience. Sure the lyrics are eccentric, but there's an intelligence to them and I can't give you enough encouragement to Add to Shopping Basket.

The newer edition has a three track bonus disk with remixes which is worthwhile, but the truly excellent music is here.

Reggae Shaman Masterpiece!
Fantastic. This is all I played for a year straight. Political - intense - passionate - heavy, and couldn't have been more appropriate in the context of our modern day world filled with uncertainty and war. The band is sooooo good, that no matter where scratch's mind is, it is somehow ok. The sound is crisp and richly layered as in "Greetings" and the potent groove of "Purity Rock"... the caucophany of "Panic" on the bonus CD is dark - deep - and mezmerizingly apocalyptic. The voice of magical humour for global humanity.For a nice live complement to this CD, I also recommend Alive More Than Ever... which is also fantasticly infectious.
