Run Up Your Mouth Riddim – Unknown Label

Run Up Your Mouth produced by Lee Scratch Perry for Unknown Label in 1971

Recorded in 1971, Run Up Your Mouth Riddim comes from Lee Scratch Perry’s production work and is tied to the Unknown Label listing in the archive. The cut is led by Stranger Cole’s Run Up Your Mouth, with The Upsetters adding Bad Luck and Mouth Version around the same rhythm. It sits in Perry’s early-1970s run, when he was sharpening the lean, echo-heavy Upsetter sound that kept turning up across different singles and labels. The set is a short three-track showcase, and the vocal cut plus the two Upsetter versions make it a neat snapshot of Perry’s studio approach in that period.
