I'd love to know more about how Lee Perry made his records - those studio pics are such a tiny tantalising glimpse. I love that b/w shot of Black Ark with just a console, an RE201 and lots of pictures. And what is that little black box with 8 knobs and 'GOD' written on it? Or the black rack unit with 'Jack Pipe'? |

Oh, OK. That 'recreation' of the Black Ark wasn't too accurate, then? I saw LP playing live at Reading Festival one year, just before the Beastie Boys came out. He was wearing a hat covered CDs, and was very good, as far as I remember. Just MCing over backing tracks. |

One story (not confirmed [yet] by other parties involved) had Perry instigating himself and Chris Blackwell walking the perimiter of the studio property, dripping blood from fresh killed chickens along the entire property line. |
