Lee “the Upsetter” Perry has worked with almost everyone from the Heptones to the Skatalites to the Clash. Certainly one of his most notable contributions was the pairing of Bob Marley, to Peter Tosh, and Bunny Wailer with the Barnet Brothers (Carley and “Familyman” who had been the heart of the Perry’s group, the Upsetters) and thus the forming of the Bob Marley and the Wailers.

Regarded with awe throughout the music world, Lee “Scratch” Perry holds status as one of the most enduring and original reggae producers and artists of all time. The Influential reggae and dub producer and musician produced Bob Marley's early Trojan material and produced many of Studio One's output in the 60s. He founded the Upsetter label (and the backing band The Upsetters) and released his first single in 1968 ("People Funny Boy”).
