Lee 'Scratch' Perry - The Return Of Pipecock Jackxon

Originally released in 1980, this album is the final work to emerge from the Black Ark studio, before its permanent destruction. It concludes a series of such LP masterworks as Super Ape, War In A Babylon, Police And Thieves, and The return Of The Super Ape. Enthrallingly, it crosses the soundworld of Roast Fish Collie Weed And Cornbread with new hybrids - like the irresistible elevenminute opener, rolling and delirious, a kind of reggae prophesy of Marvin Gaye's Sexual Healing, but musically richer, and more glazed, randy and visionary.
