{"product_id":"upsetters-rhythm-shower-lp-66442570121","title":"Upsetters - Rhythm Shower [LP]","description":"\u003cp\u003eBetween the twin pillars of \"Cloak and Dagger\" and \"Blackboard Jungle Dub\", the superlative, yet often overlooked, \"Rhythm Shower\" album was also released in '73. Originally issued in a very limited Jamaican pressing with no sleeve, it became better known when re-released by the Trojan label as part of its 3 LP, and later 2-CD set, The Upsetter Collection, first issued in 1986.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDespite its obscurity, \"Rhythm Shower\" is a pivotal album in Perry's career as a producer and bandleader; it finds him beginning to experiment with dub and developing his singular studio sound that would come to full maturity in subsequent years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhereas earlier albums offered plenty of instrumental versions, on \"Rhythm Shower\", Perry really begins employing the studio sleight of hand that would become part and parcel for what was then the emerging art form of dub -- dropping voices and instruments in and out of the mix to create a trippy, hypnotic effect. Not to go unnoticed is the mighty Upsetters themselves, whose revolving crew of musical heavyweights included Bob Marley \u0026amp; The Wailers future rhythm section Aston \"Family Man\" Barrett on bass and drummer Carlton Barrett. The powerhouse rhythms they forged give Perry all the space he needs to work his mojo at the mixing desk.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith one foot planted firmly in the celebrated sound of the time and the other stepping assuredly into the future, \"Rhythm Shower\" is essential listening for any fan of Reggae, Dub or Lee Perry. This is crucial music. This is classic Scratch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eRhythm Shower\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 Tighten Up (Dellinger)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 Django Shoots First (Sir Lord Comic)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 Uncle Charley (The Upsetters)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 Sokup (The Upsetters)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5 Double Power (The Upsetters)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6 Lover Ver.
