Mr. Brown (song)
"Mr. Brown" is a song by Jamaican group The Wailers. Recorded in 1970 at Randy's recording studio in Kingston, it was produced by Lee Perry and written by regular Upsetter musician Glen Adams. It was originally released as a single in Jamaica and has appeared on various compilations such as ''Songs Of Freedom''.
Because it is based on a ghost rumour, the song has lyrics and instrumentals based on a spooky style. The instrumental is called "Dracula". The song has been featured on a few Hallowe'en albums, and has a remix with DJ Spooky.
The song's music sampled Jackie Mittoo's "Peenie Wallie".
== Background ==
The theme of the song relates to a rumour that was spreading through Jamaica that a duppy, or ghost, had been spotted in numerous locations speeding through the land on a three-wheeled coffin, perched upon which were three John crows, or buzzards, one of which could talk and was asking for a Mr. Brown. Glen Adams wrote the lyrics after hearing the story, and after Lee Perry's suggestion, was sung by The Wailers.〔Katz, David (2006). ''People Funny Boy: The Genius of Lee Scratch Perry'', pp. 117-18.
