The Upsetter is a fine collection of Scratch's solo work, spanning from the rocksteady era to the Black Ark days. Oddly, they include the rare "Uncle Desmond", which is sung by the Mellotones. Personally, I would have left off Scratch's lame version of "Yakety Yak" and the ridiculous "Bathroom Skank", but overall this is a solid set of work, and nice to have all of these tunes in one collection.
