RIP Lee Scratch Perry

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

A true originator, a mad genius if there was ever one. I love so much of his work. We were lucky to have him.

He was a hitchhiker from outer space.
He was an elephant from outer space.
Living in his suitcase.

very sad news. i burned all my dub-receptors out eons ago smoking cocanut bongs in the ghetto (an' ting) but along with Augustus Pablo and Mad Peofessor he was a legend. RIP Scratch Perry -('ll take the Lee back as theres no call for such an outstanding name to go to waste in the hereafter until its emblazoned on the back of my Infernal Self..in Hell we will all wear harrington jackets...)
Well I was handsome and I was strong
And I knew the words to every song.
"Did my singing please you?"
"No! The words you sang were wrong!"
