Some Sympathy produced by Lee Scratch Perry for Unknown Label in 1969
Some Sympathy Riddim – Unknown Label is a compact 1969 Lee Scratch Perry production with just two Dave Barker cuts, Some Sympathy and Tender Love. The set keeps the focus tight on Barker’s vocal style, and the pairing gives the riddim a small but memorable footprint rather than a crowded various-artists line-up. Perry’s name alone puts it in that classic late-’60s reggae lane, with the kind of raw, upfront feel he was already shaping into something distinctive. As a two-track release, it plays more like a focused studio snapshot than a full compilation, with the title cut doing most of the heavy lifting and Tender Love rounding it out in a sweet, restrained way.
