Lee Perry Roast Fish, Collie Weed & Corn Bread 180g Import LP (Black Vinyl)

Roast Fish, Collie Weed & Corn Bread is a studio album by Jamaican reggae legend Lee "Scratch" Perry, released in 1978. Although Perry had been in the Jamaican music business for a long time by 1978, this album, self produced at his Black Ark Studio, was the first album he released that only included songs sung by himself. It's considered a rather experimental album, much to the dismay of his record label, Island Records, who rejected it. This significantly worsened the relationship between Perry and his label. Nevertheless, the album went on to become a reggae classic and remains popular among fans of the genre.

Roast Fish, Collie Weed & Corn Bread is available on black vinyl.

And as highly experimental as many of the tracks are - the rhythms throughout are particularly inspired, with the productions equally intriguing - unlike many of Perry's earlier excursions out to the musical fringe, these numbers are eminently entertaining and downright infectious, boasting strong melodies and, dare one say it, great vocals. An extraordinary set, which in many ways laid the musical foundation for his Grammy-winning Jamaican E.T.
