Adding percussion from Larry McDonald and backing harmonies from Detroit-based female trio Dames Brown and The Groovematist, the new album was completed just in time for a double-12&#8243; vinyl special edition (&#8220;Rootz Reggae Dub &#8211; Special Edition&#8221;) for April&#8217;s Record Store Day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This new collection from Lee &#8220;Scratch&#8221; Perry was one of the best selling vinyl albums for this year&#8217;s Record Store Day.
