Thanks We Get Riddim – Unknown Label

Thanks We Get produced by Lee Scratch Perry for Unknown Label in 1969

Produced by Lee Scratch Perry for an unknown label in 1969, Thanks We Get gathers just two cuts on the same lean early-reggae rhythm, with Junior Byles and Omar Perry’s The Thanks We Get (1967) and The Versatiles’ later take both giving the tune its shape. The release sits right in Perry’s late-60s creative run, when he was sharpening the stripped-back, bass-led sound that would soon define much of his catalogue. With only two tracks and three credited artists, it plays like a small but very telling snapshot of the era: spare, direct, and built around a rhythm strong enough to carry different voices without losing its identity.
