Artist
Best known by his nickname Lee 'Scratch' Perry, and his work with Lee Perry & The Upsetters or the Lee Perry & Friends releases. Born on Mar 20, 1936 in St. Mary's, Jamaica. First called "Little" Perry, in reference to his height of 5'6 (1.68m), he is a major founder of Reggae and Dub. First working with ska, he cut his first record in 1959. From then, he worked with a variety of musicians and producers, not always on the best of terms. His first record on his own Upsetter label was entitled "People Funny Boy," and was a direct attack on Joe Gibbs of Wirl Records.
