Lee “Scratch” Perry, Scratch Came, Scratch Saw, Scratch Conquered
2008 | Label: Megawave / IODA

Just one of three releases this year from Lee "Scratch" Perry, Scratch Came, Scratch Saw, Scratch Conquered oozes with more of the legendary dub pioneer's trademark studio tweakings and laid-back vibes. Scratch sounds a touch fatigued here, but it ends up providing the record with a sort of nice drowsy, professorial feel.

More E-Music stupidity!!!!

Let's see, at .49 a track and 3 of the 13 tracks are not available, that should come to 4.90. Yet e-music charges 5.99 for the whole album. Rip-off. Pure and simple.

If you really want Heavy Voodoo...then dowload the whole album. Its well worth it. Thanks for your site E-music. With your ecclectic music selection and great value, I will never use Itunes again.

Out of the three albums of new material that Lee “Scratch” Perry released in 2008, Scratch Came, Scratch Saw, Scratch Conquered comes in third. Unlike Repentance with Andrew W.K. as producer and The Mighty Upsetter with Adrian Sherwood behind the boards, Scratch Came, Scratch Saw, Scratch Conquered is a misfire with Perry and multi-instrumentalist John Saxon failing in the chemistry department. The duo did a much better job on their 2006 collaboration The End of an American Dream. – David Jeffries
