BADAM BAM
Produced by Lee 'Scratch' Perry
original hand-stamped Upsetters pressing
This ultra rare, mint condition, hand-stamped "UPSETTER RECORDS Produced & Distributed by LEE PERRY" single features two top ranking tunes. On one side you get the seminal West Indians vocal trio featuring Hector Brooks, Leslie Burke and the unmistakable falsetto of Eric Donaldson singing "Oh Lord" as if his very life depended on it. Wow. On the other, The West Indians shine seemlessly for the crucial "Badam Bam", over the wickedst version ever of one of Scratch's toughest tracks of the late 60s, the international hit "Live Injection". Mo' wow. Also in mint shape. Another early slice of Jamaican vinyl distributed personally by Mr. Perry back in the day.See & hear my Lee Perry interviews (including a new-to-the-website extended sound segment from my 1982 interview featured in the 1983 issue of the Reggae & African Beat magazine with Scratch at the Black Ark also up for auction this week) plus my original liner notes for the LEE PERRY REGGAE GREATS compilation on Mango Records at midnightdread.com for more from The Upsetter.
The ORIGINAL 7" Jamaican UPSETTER RECORDS is hand-stamped on one side 'UPSETTER RECORDS Produced & Distributed by LEE PERRY'. The 1969 vinyl is in mint condition and appears new. The cleanest Jamaican vinyl possible! Disc is very slightly evenly concave, not warped. It plays great, does not skip, has no scratches. Hand writing on both sides (see photos). Made in Jamaica.
