In the early 1960s, the ska sound exploded onto the Jamaican musical landscape. The driving, dynamic sound was carried by what is arguably the largest group of musicians to have ever performed and recorded on the island. Led by legendary saxophonist Tommy McCook, the Skatalites included a who's who of Kingston artists, including trombonist Don Drummond, tenor saxophonist Roland Alphonso, drummer Lloyd Knibb and keyboard prodigy Jackie Mittoo. Formed in the summer of 1964, this powerhouse instrumental combo dominated the island's music industry for a glorious 18 months. Most of their work was produced by famed Treasure Isle Records boss Arthur "Duke" Reid. The highlights of her work for the famous producer are presented on the "Essential Artist Collection", which will be released as both a 2LP vinyl set and a double CD collection. Both offer the best introduction yet to the music of the incredible, versatile and hugely influential Skatalites.
