One of the first vocalists to enter the Jamaican music business, Alton Ellis was generally revered as the greatest and most soulful singer the country ever produced. Ellis had his first hit during the ska craze, but made his true lasting mark as the definitive solo singer of the rocksteady era

1967's Alton Ellis Sings Rock and Soul captures Alton as a young man with talent far beyond his years. An eclectic mix of originals and covers on this collection exhibits why Alton remains Jamaica's signature rocksteady voice.
