Tackro produced by Lee Scratch Perry for Upsetter in 1969
Produced by Lee Scratch Perry for Upsetter in 1969, Tackro is a classic late-60s Perry cut that turns up here in its original Lee Scratch Perry and The Upsetters form, with the 1971 1st 2nd and 3rd Gen. Upsetters version also linked to the tune’s history. Known as Tackro or Tackio, it captures Perry’s early Upsetter sound before the Black Ark years, when he was already pushing lean, heavy Jamaican rhythms into stranger territory.
Tackro Tracklist:
- 1st 2nd & 3rd Gen. Upsetters – The Tackro (1971)
- Lee Scratch Perry & The Upsetters – Tackro (Tackio) (1969)
