Woman’s Gotta Have It produced by Lee Scratch Perry for Unknown Label in 1973
Woman’s Gotta Have It Riddim collects the 1973 Lee Scratch Perry production around Jimmy Riley’s Woman’s Gotta Have It, with the Upsetters’ Gotta Have Dub and Perry’s own Womans Dub adding the dub-wise side of the story. Built as a small but focused slice of early-70s Black Ark-era creativity, it keeps Perry’s fingerprints all over the arrangement and the atmosphere, while Riley’s vocal cut gives the riddim its center. The lineup is short, but that’s part of its identity: one song, two deep dub versions, and a clear line from the original tune into Perry’s spacious, echo-heavy mix.
Woman’s Gotta Have It Tracklist:
- Jimmy Riley – Woman's Gotta Have It (1973)
- Lee Scratch Perry – Womans Dub (1975)
