Cloak and Dagger is a studio album by Scratch The Upsetter, released in 1973. Although Cloak and Dagger has elements of dub, music historian Lloyd Bradley described it as a transitional work between earlier Jamaican instrumental recordings and the development of dub. He argued that its arrangements, instrumentation and mixing techniques helped shape Lee "Scratch" Perry's later dub recordings.
