[kj] The Orb & Lee Scratch Perry - Fact mix

[Neil Perry]

I'm just hoping he's going to turn up! It's at a festival here in Oslo and
I bought a day ticket
just to see him. Getting Lee Scratch Perry on to a stage must be like
trying to herd ten Jaz Colemans.

Still, even if he doesn't, Max Romeo and co should put on a blinder. Just
hoping we get Chase The Devil - or maybe
all of War Ina Babylon. A man can dream...
