    I stopped in may pen town one day in March 2021......across the street a dread had a single speaker box and a CD player......playing this gem. He stopped play for awhile and shifted to some gospel tracks. I got out of the car....hustled across the street and asked him to play it again......he looked at me surprised.......which one he asked? I said you just played some Alton Ellis medley.....play it again. He pulled a pile of cd’s and I paid him $150 Jamaican. I tipped him another $100........I am still enjoying this gem today. I grew up listening to these songs but in March they were candy to my ear and I had to have them.

    Who ever don’t know Alton Ellis I feel sorry for that, music to fall in love with, music to pass down for generations to come, cannot mistake his talent so many artists have done covers in homage to the Godfather of Reggae “ Willow Tree” takes me to another place.
    Sing on in beautiful paradise until the next life where I will dance as your words touch my soul 🙏🏽🌹x

    A lot of people does not know that Alton Ellis is singing from in the 1950s and, he was discovered by a Jamaican man named Vere Johns talent show at Ambassador Theatre. I grew up in Jamaica and heard a little about Vere Johns talent show found a few singers, he is one of cofounder of. A lot of top reggae singers in Jamaica, he left Jamaica living in the United States in 1924 long before Alton Ellis, Bob Marley, John Holt, and companies was born. He helped to developed the music in the United States ,where he was running a talent show naming Vere Johns talent show in New York city and. All over the United States and returned to Jamaica in 1939 were he started to run the Vere Johns talent show, where he found Alton Ellis, John Holt, and a couple more singers. I useto listened to his shows on the radio back in the days, he died in 1966 .Same year Haile Selassie came to Jamaica, I was a big school boy running, and playing cricket for my and club. Vere Johns talent show found a few singers in Jamaica and the United States, he is one who really the founder of the music in Jamaica to an extent. But the mento music is one of the oldest music in the world, and it is from the days of slavery .

    I remembered when this song came out in the 1960s at that time, Alton Ellis was one of the best reggae singer in the world. I know Alton Ellis from in the 1960s, before he migrated to England. Also when he sings with his brother, and sister from the days of the good old days in Trench Town.
    Music like this cannot grow old at all ,whenever times you hear it,is like brand new releases.

      @@moniquerobinson1986 Is the very 1st time that you heard that Alton Ellis was the best reggae singer in the world, Alton Ellis was singing long time before Bob Marley ,Derreck Morgan, Prince Buster and companies which a lot of people does not know that. You haveto born within certain times to knows certain things, this 1st Jamaican to recorded a song in Jamaica. Is Harry Belafonte which you learned about in the United States, he was born in the United States of Jamaican parentages and. Came to Jamaica to grew,he was living in the same area as Bob Marley. But Harry Belafonte left for Kingston in his young age,and got into music.
      My uncle useto played music before Bob Marley was born and, even Alton Ellis was a little boy. I born come see my uncle playing music during those days, it was mento long before all the rest of music came in.The American music was helped invented by a Jamaican named Vere Johns talent show, in 1924 and helped developed their music.
      Before he returned to Jamaica in 1939 before Bob Marley, also a lot of them was born. He started a talented parade show in Jamaica, and he discovered Alton Ellis, John Holt, Desmond Dekker, just to mentioned a few of those singers he found. He runs the show in Jamaica until 1966 before he died, so when you hear some of them talking. But
      they does not know the intricacies about the Jamaican music history ,I have been around a very long time.
      I useto living in Sheffield in the 1980s, so I know a bit about England. My father was living there since 1957, and my ex wife went there in 1963 ,and she still living there.
      I hope you enjoyed the information I am giving, I know a lot of history, ok.
