Notes
-----
In August 1965, barely a week after the demise of the original
Skatalites, The Soul Brothers (featuring ex-Skatalites members Jackie
Mittoo, Roland Alphonso, Johnny Moore and Lloyd Brevitt) were up and
running as the new house band at Studio One. Other members in this group
included Wallin Cameron (guitar) and Bunny Williams (drums). This
release could just as easily have been called Rolando Alphonso and The
Soul Brothers or just The Soul Brothers as the group were essentially a
collective, releasing material under their own name or under a nominal
leader (usually Jackie Mittoo or Rolando Alphonso). The group line-up
changed over time with Bobby Ellis (trumpet), Bryan Atkinson (bass),
Dennis Campbell (Sax), Harry Haughton (guitarist) and Joe Isaacs
(drummer) replacing various members alongside the ever present Jackie
Mittoo. The Soul Brothers mix of musical styles is described as Ska,
Jump-Up and Soul sounds. The track "Last Train to Skaville" signalled
the end of the Ska era, as the Soul Brothers started to forge a new
sound that by 1967 had become known as Rocksteady, a slowed down funky
version of Ska. The main difference between the sound of The Skatalites
and The Soul Brothers is the arrival of electric instrumentation such as
Jackie¹s organ as well as electric guitar on some tracks. In 1967
Clement Dodd decided to take a group of musicians to England. Alongside
the singers Alton Ellis and Ken Boothe, he asked Roland Alphonso, Jackie
Mittoo, Johnny Moore, Lloyd Brevett, Bunny Williams and Errol Walters.
This group would be named The Soul Vendors and signalled the end of the
short-lived Soul Brothers
