"A quintessential Lee 'Scratch' Perry Wailers single on Upsetter with an upsolute Righteous Upsetters dynamite dub on the flipside. As described in the recommended recent book BOB MARLEY & THE WAILERS: THE DEFINITIVE DISCOGRAPHY by Roger Steffens and Leroy Jodie Pierson, this original version of 'Downpresser' features Peter Tosh on vocal, Bob Marley & Bunny Wailer on harmony vocals, Carlton Barrett on drums, Aston 'Family Man' Barrett on bass, Alva 'Reggie' Lewis on guitar, Glen Adams on keyboards, Gladdy Anderson on piano, Uziah 'Sticky' Thompson playing percussion. Errol Thompsion engineered the whole affair at Randy's Studio 17 on a four track with Lee Perry producing. Almighty sounds. The composer credit on 'Downpresser' reads P. Touch. It is Peter's third recording of the traditional 'Sinner Man' which he first cut at Studio One in 1968. ..."
