Lee 'Scratch' Perry: 'I gave Bob Marley reggae as a present'

Lee "Scratch" Perry talks to Krishnan Guru-Murthy about religion, reggae and his boots.

RIP....a true legend. Keith Richards once said of him "More than a producer, he knows how to inspire the artist’s soul. Like Phil Spector, he has a gift of not only hearing sounds that come from nowhere else, but also translating those sounds to the musicians. Scratch is a shaman."

He is very eccentric but a brilliant writer and producer. His youthfulness is enviable. Honor to Lee Scratch Perry!

A man happy will appear carzy to those who are unhappy. Lee Scratch Perry is a fulfillment of this prophecy.

The interviewer lacks the expertise of tapping in to this old man's mystical dimensions.He wants to express himself beyond the boxed type questions

[zacharyharris]

Its like he is low key trying to exercise the demons outta the interviewer using love. Amazingly aware and beautiful human.

Saw Scratch live in D.C. years ago. Don’t know if the Music amazed me most, or just being in the same room with him. Truly amazing man. I’ll Never forget it...
