A towering, though eccentric, figure in the history of reggae music, Lee "Scratch" Perry is responsible to a large degree for making dub and reggae music the presence that it is within the world of pop music. His innovation in both songwriting and recording was bold, clever, and utterly pioneering, helping to shape and mold roots music into a new form rife with potential for experiment. He appears here playing live with another pioneer of reggae production, The Mad Professor. Backed by The Robotics, the pair perform such songs as "My Secret Laboratory," "Introducing Myself," "Jungle Safari," "I Am A Madman," "Roast Fish And Cornbread," "Come Go With Lee," "Heads Of The Government," "Bucky Skank," and Open Door."
