The Sound of the Machine…

Lee “Scratch” Perry – Roast Fish, Collie Weed And Cornbread

“I returned to music through machines. The dif­fer­ence is that the machines are clean, and the machines are not cor­rupted. What I create here cannot hurt people, but you can bring an impure musi­cian to play in your studio and create your own doom. My brain rep­re­sent the bass, an’ if an evil man is play­ing on my brain, it’ll cause me trou­ble as he’s trying to chip away at my brain. And if an evil drum­mer is play­ing my beat with an evil thought, I think he can hurt my brain by play­ing a dread­ful drum. But the machine cannot play a dread­ful drum, and the machine cannot play a dread­ful bass.”
-Lee Perry
