Groove Me produced by Lee Scratch Perry for Unknown Label in 1971
Recorded in 1971 and produced by Lee Scratch Perry for an unknown label, Groove Me Riddim gathers three early-’70s cuts led by Dave Barker and The Upsetters: Groove Me, Screwdriver, and Move Me. The set sits comfortably in Perry’s classic Black Ark-era style, with Barker’s voice fronting the title track and The Upsetters turning in the tight instrumental work that gives the rhythm its shape. Move Me is a notable cut here, and the combination of vocal and version-style tracks points to the kind of studio craft Perry was developing at the time.
