Em comemoração ao meu aniversário, decidi postar essa coletânea de 06 discos com mais de 110 faixas gravadas entre 1967 e 1972 numa altura em que a música reggae e dub estava se desenvolvendo como um gênero. Ela tem versões alternativas, instrumentais e dubs de Bob Marley e com Lee Perry. É muito interessante ouvir como o som das faixas mudou, desde quando elas foram originalmente gravadas!!!

This set claims to be a fully comprehensive collection of the music Bob Marley recorded with Lee "Scratch" Perry before signing to Island records. Given this is a collection of 110 tracks this claim is pretty easy to believe. These tracks were all recorded between 1967 and 1972, a time when reggae and dub music was developing as a genre and Lee "Scratch" Perry was one of the main contributors to this emerging sound.
This collection features alternative versions, instrumentals and dubs of the tracks Marley recorded with Perry in addition to the "final" released versions. As you can see from the tracklisting below the listener is treated to five or six versions of some tracks. Many of the instrumental tracks are credited to "The Upsetters" - Lee "Scratch" Perry's house band.
Many of the tracks in this compilation were re-recorded when the Wailers (and later, "Bob Marley and the Wailers") were signed to Island Records. It is interesting to hear how the sound of the tracks has changed since they were originally recorded. The songs from this era of Marley's have an audible rawness and rebel spirit to them (in no small part due to Peter Tosh's presence) which makes some of these recordings favourites among Wailers purists. As to be expected, the sound quality of this compilation is not up to the high standards of a world class recording studio, however, the tracks do have an energy and vitality that no high-tech recording equipment could emulate.
