Roots Reggae: 1967-1982 23
Album info
Alton Ellis was one of the true originals and innovators of the Jamaican ska and reggae sound. Right up there with Bob Marley, Prince Buster and Desmond Dekker. He originated the rocksteady beat that would become the staple of the British two tone movement. He was a fine recording artist who knocked out a whole range of classic tracks in his own unique style.
Recorded in 1967 for the Studio One label, this is a fine collection of tracks. Ellis takes well known material and gives it the rocksteady treatment (the best ever version of whiter shade of pale is to be found here) or delivers some fine originals.
It’s laid back, grooving and just a whole load of fun to listen to. It’s music designed to help you have a good time, and listening to it is really uplifting.
Includes the 12 original tracks which appeared on the 1967 CSL 8008 vinyl release together with two “bonus” tracks not listed on the cover -“oppression” and “mother and father” A classic album by one of the greatest singers ever.
