Don’t Let The Sun Catch You Crying Riddim – Unknown Label

Don’t Let The Sun Catch You Crying produced by Lee Scratch Perry for Unknown Label in 1969

Don’t Let The Sun Catch You Crying Riddim arrived in 1969 as a Lee Scratch Perry production, issued here on an unknown label and carried by just two cuts: Dave Barker and The Wailers’ title track and The Pacemakers’ version. The set is compact, but the pairing gives it a nice contrast, with Barker and The Wailers bringing the more recognisable reggae edge to a tune originally made famous in the pop era. Perry’s name is the key draw here, and this is another early snapshot of his work with The Wailers around the same period he was shaping some of his most important late-’60s recordings.
