Saturday Scratch #22
Lee Perry pieced together much of the
Upsetters LP, 'Double Seven,' at Chalk Farm
Studio in London, during the winter of 1973
and you don't need a crystal ball to gauge
Scratch's opinion of the unfamiliar climate
in which he found himself, as the album
contains the titles' 'Hail Stones' and, this
week's featured tune, 'Cold Weather.' 40
years on, in the grip of a winter that
refuses to end, it seems an appropriate
selection.

Just wonderful. A track from the first Scratch album I ever bought. Nice chunky vinyl, too. Keep warm!
We haven't measured our comfort in warmth for a while now, we tend to use different degrees of chilliness.
