The Internationally acclaimed Godfather of reggae, the king of Rock Steady. Alton Ellis was born in kingston, Jamaica, and began his career as a dancer at the age of sixteen. After achieving many awards in this field over a two year period, Alton took an interest in singing. His debut was as a vocal duo named Alton and Eddy.

After three years with Alton and The Flames, Alton launched his career as a solo artist and joined the 'Studio One Label' in 1967.
