Stranger On The Shore Riddim – Upset

Stranger On The Shore produced by Lee Scratch Perry for Upset in 1968

Issued in 1968 on Upset, Stranger On The Shore Riddim is a Lee Scratch Perry production that pairs The Mellotones’ Non Such with Val Bennett and The Upsetters’ Stranger On The Shore. The set leans into Perry’s early studio work, with the Upsetters backing the session and Val Bennett’s saxophone carrying the title cut. It’s a short two-track release, and the original melody source gives the riddim a distinctive instrumental feel that sits neatly in Perry’s late-’60s catalogue.
