It was in 2014 that Perry teamed up with UK producer Daniel Boyle, and from this collaboration came the Grammy nominated album ‘Back At The Controls’ and was followed up five years later with the \u003ci\u003eBlack Album\u003c\/i\u003e.  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003ci\u003eKing Perry\u003c\/i\u003e album was born out of a request from Perry that he “wanted to do something new, something different but still with a dub framework”. And so, armed with influences as diverse as synthwave, big beat, drum and bass and electronica, Boyle and Perry traded ideas, beats and lyrics in a project that continued to grow as its various guest performers were added, resulting in a kaleidoscopic and engaging melting pot of rhythms, melodies, and voices. Poignantly, closing track ‘Goodbye’ was Perry’s last ever recorded vocal performance. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"False Idols","offers":[{"title":"Black LP","offer_id":50451366576459,"sku":"2167629","price":24.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":50451366248779,"sku":"2167628","price":7.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/48ea9ac7-78da-85af-f50f-7c988e66c82b_30b38773_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727123896"},{"product_id":"the-black-emperor-vol-2-dubwise","title":"The Black Emperor Vol 2 (Dubwise)","description":"\u003cp\u003eDub version of the Black Emperor Vol 2 (Vocals) album, which are made up of obscure Lee Perry Black Ark productions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSons Of Light - Land Of Dub \/ Lee Perry - Control Dub \/ Earl Sixteen - Freedom Version \/ Upsetters - Shepeard Rod Upsetters - Dub Cap \/ Upsetters - Dub Money \/ Upsetters - Dub \u0026amp; Praise \/ Upsetters - Feature Dub \/ Upsetters - Sufferers Dub \/ Upsetters - Dub Dat \/ Lee Perry - No Peace Version \/ Lee Perry - Corn Fish Dub\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Studio 16","offers":[{"title":"LP - Black","offer_id":50454040543563,"sku":"1166096","price":16.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/41e5741e-f9cd-4214-bebb-5fa6755bf8ad_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727180138"},{"product_id":"revelation-20","title":"Revelation","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eRevelation \u003c\/i\u003eis the 2010 album by dub pioneer Lee “Scratch” Perry (born Rainford Hugh Perry).

It’s pure craziness at its best. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Music On Vinyl","offers":[{"title":"LP - Orange","offer_id":50482124128587,"sku":"1075614","price":23.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"LP - Black","offer_id":50482125799755,"sku":"1090241","price":31.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"LP - Red","offer_id":50482127044939,"sku":"2057150","price":32.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"LP - Yellow","offer_id":56401878647115,"sku":"R0901-7442","price":32.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/e5d808dd-8fba-44db-9e9a-7abfcb623271_thumbnail_4096.png?v=1727549193"},{"product_id":"open-the-gate","title":"Open the Gate","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Jamaican dub pioneer Lee “Scratch” Perry had the ability to attract some of the best musicians around to indulge in their fantasies.
