Title: Lee “Scratch” Perry & King Tubby – Cloak & Dagger
Year/Genre: 1973, Reggae / Dub
Condition: New

Cultural Facts:

  1. Emerging from Perry’s Black Ark/Upsetter orbit, the album captures Kingston’s early-’70s shift from vocal singles to producer-led studio experiments.

  2. Frequently cited as one of the first widely circulated dub LPs, it helped introduce non-Jamaican listeners to version culture and heavy, studio-built rhythm science.

  3. King Tubby’s name on the sleeve reflects the new celebrity status of engineers and mixers in Jamaican music, turning behind-the-board figures into headline artists.
