Evening Time by Jackie Mittoo

eaturing a particularly natty cover photo of Mittoo set off by a very mod-looking standup organ, palm trees, and a trio of island lovelies, Evening Time further plies its groove exotica theme with bounce-and-grind gems from the rocksteady and early reggae days. The year was 1968, and Mittoo had already risen to the top of the competitive Kingston music scene, first as a member of the Skatalites and then as a the session leader of Clement Dodd's venerable Studio One label.

Jackie Mittoo was a Jamaican-Canadian keyboardist, songwriter and musical director. He was a member of The Skatalites and musical director of Studio One.
