(Alton Ellis & Eddie Perkins – My Heaven)

last of the Alton selection..and it’s this one from the earliest days of Jamaican musicology…recorded for none other than Clement Seymour Dodd. The second of his two cuts with Eddie Perkins as the duo Alton & Eddie from 1959, (cut three weeks after his first recording ‘Muriel’)

Alton..thank you for the music.

p.s next week it’s the turn of themusicologists first musical icon..Curtis Mayfield.
