Without a doubt Lee 'Scratch' Perry is an orphic channeller, a super hero, a Black Ark Magician. He bedazzles and discombobulates, cackling at his own riddles, speaking from another realm.
This album epitomizes the spirit of Lee 'Scratch' Perry and how it lives through those of us who are obsessives of this mystery of a man. He is said to have made something in the region of 2000 albums. This one is one he started with Youth in the third dimension - and oversaw to completion from an unquantifiable one.
Each artist featured (Carroll Thompson, Blue Pearl, Zoe Devlin, Radical Dance Faction, Boy George, Hollie Cook and more) is as fervent about Scratch and his works as the next. The psychic rapport is evident. Youth calls it 'voodoo magic meets raiders of the lost ark'. It sums up the cosmic coming together of an album that's been a good seven years in the making.
