"A time to sow and a time to reap, yes my friend."
Lee Scratch Perry told us during filming of The Upsetter that he originally wrote this song for Bob Marley and laid down a voice guide track for Bob to follow when he was ready to record it. Chris Blackwell stopped by the Black Ark one night and Lee played the song for Chris. Chris was so moved by Lee's unusually restrained vocal performance and the lyrics of the song that he told Lee to keep it for himself.
