Creeper produced by Lee Scratch Perry for Unknown Label in 1971
1971 roots reggae from Lee Scratch Perry, Creeper Riddim was cut for an unknown label and keeps the focus tight with just two sides: Charlie Ace and The Upsetters’ The Creeper and the flip Creeping Version by The Upsetters. Perry’s name is the key credit here, and the release sits right in the early Upsetter period, when he was shaping stripped-back, bass-heavy sides that carried a strong studio feel. With only two tracks, it plays more like a compact single than a full riddim set, and the Creeper/Creeping Version pairing makes the whole thing feel like a direct vocal-and-version snapshot from 1971.
