Audio Mixers: Lee "Scratch" Perry; Mad Professor. Recording information: ARIWA Studios. MYSTIC WARRIOR, the first full-fledged collaboration between Jamaica's Lee "Scratch" Perry and the Guyana-born Mad Professor, is one of the first albums on which Perry abdicated production duties in favor of being merely a featured performer. As a result, the album features more of the Mad Professor's sonic signatures than it does Perry's. The songs are largely electronic, with the cleanliness and digitized sheen missing from Perry's noisier, more organic solo productions. That said, MYSTIC WARRIOR is an exceptional late-period reggae album. Perry's stream-of-consciousness rants are not quite toasting and not quite singing, but they're always riveting. "Kung Foo Fighting"--not the Carl Douglas hit from the '70s--is a particular highlight, martial arts being a longtime passion of Perry's. The haranguing "Pirates (Black Plastic)" is a similarly heartfelt spiel against bootleggers. The Professor's rhythms throb, and all of the tracks are filled with Perry's trademark humor and mysticism.
