Millie Small's 1964 offbeat version of " My Boy Lollipop", previously recorded by Barbie Gaye, was the first ska song to achieve international success. Derrick Morgan follows with the Latin-influenced "Fat Man". The set begins with "Iron Bar", a traditional by Lord Tanamo, reflecting reggae's early mento roots. Colin Escott's liner notes point out the influence of American R&B on Jamaican acts.
