Soul Rebels [VINYL]

Descripción

Faithful replication of the original 1970 Upsetter pressing of this classic album, produced by the legendary Lee Scratch Perry!Limited edition yellow vinyl pressing in a reverse board jacket!Originally issued in 1970,Soul Rebels was the first album credited to Bob Marley & the Wailers,and it was also the band's first full-length collaboration with producer Lee Scratch Perry,for whom they had already recorded a string of fairly successful singles.Working with the newly configured Upsetters band,Marley and crew delivered a strange and wonderful set of early reggae that at times plays fast and loose with the already established conventions of the genre -- on My Cup the beat sounds inside out,while It's Alright sounds like a slightly Jamaicanized version of Motown soul.Other songs,such as the beautifully harmonized Try Me,show their deep roots in rocksteady.One of the most arresting tracks on the album is the Peter Tosh sung Four Hundred Years,on which Tosh unburdens himself of some of his typically dread pronouncements in his rich,chesty voice.
