DUB DISCUSSION BOARD

Does anyone know how Lee Perry generated that cow-like sound that appears on some of his work?

I can't remember off the top of my head, but I think there's a pretty detailed description in David Katz's bio of LSP, People Are Funny Boy. Peace. Dan

you mean a cow mooing, or a cowbell ?? which tunes?

Yeah, Neil, you gotta give us some "tips" to even get a remote idea what are you talking about &#40;what album/tracks, what is it...drum/percussion sound..or synth..or some voice or just efx or what??&#41;..heh, this isn't "who wants to be a millionaire"-show ..you know <IMG SRC="http://www.interruptor.ch/cgi-bin/discu ... /happy.gif" ALT=":&#41;"> <BR> <BR>/Mike Zee aka Dr ZEE

I think what Neil is referring to is something like the cow sound in Roast Fish & Cornbread, which is like a combination moo-bellow that seems to just roar up from somewhere way down deep. Dan

The example I am thinking of is in 'Children Crying' by the Congoes &#40; I can't remember which other tracks I've heard it on, but I have heard it on others&#41;. <BR> <BR>Yes, it sounds like a mooing cow. <BR> <BR>I'm not in any desperation to find out, I'm just curious to know. <BR>I've been meaning to get the People Funny Boy book by David Katz, so I guess I'll find out from that &#40;if not before on here&#41;. <BR> <BR>Thanks for the responses.

Hi Neil, <BR> <BR>I am just listening to the Congo's album. In fact I think the mooing sound is really from a library of animal sounds. there were such records already back in the seventies. or maybe scratch took his reel-to-reel recorder on a weekend trip to the blue mountains.. <BR><IMG SRC="http://www.interruptor.ch/cgi-bin/discu ... muppet.gif">
