Both tracks were produced by Lee 'Scratch' Perry on the much looked after SPINNING WHEEL label in 1970. Only 10 singles have been released on this label and this very single was the first release on the label.
These two very much in demand Reggae instrumental gems were only reissued in a Trojan singles box aptly called HAUNTED HOUSE that is now also extremely rare and expensive.
"Haunted House" was originally released in 1970 on the Upsetter label in Jamaica and later on Trojan Records in the UK.
Originally composed as "Spinning Wheel" by David Clayton-Thomas, "Haunted House" transforms the brilliant but weird psych soul jazz funk hit into an even weirder reggae instrumental, driven by syncopated rolling basslines and hypnotic skanking groove.
The track is a wicked Upsetters’ production, blending haunting elements with a driving reggae rhythm…
Pressings of this track are highly sought after by collectors, with prices reflecting its rarity and significance in early Reggae history.
"Double Wheel" was released as a B side to “Haunted House” on the original single and serves as a perfect complement to the A-side.
Like "Haunted House," "Double Wheel" is an instrumental adaptation of the song "Spinning Wheel” similar to the A side but featuring a mesmerizing organ...
Both tracks are prime examples of Lee Perry’s early work before he fully transitioned into the deep, psychedelic dub that would define his later years. This reissue brings these wicked gems back to light, allowing a new generation of Reggae enthusiasts to experience their brilliance.
