*Studio One Studio Backing Band* from Jamaica.
In August 1965, barely a week after the demise of the original Skatalites, The Soul Brothers (featuring ex-Skatalites members Jackie Mittoo, Roland Alphonso, Johnny Moore and Lloyd Brevitt) were up and running as the new house band at Studio One. Other members in this group included Wallin Cameron (guitar) and Bunny Williams (drums). This release could just as easily have been called Rolando Alphonso and The Soul Brothers or just The Soul Brothers as the group were essentially a collective, releasing material under their own name or under a nominal leader (usually Jackie Mittoo or Rolando Alphonso). The group line-up changed over time with Bobby Ellis (trumpet), Bryan Atkinson (bass), Dennis Campbell (Sax), Harry Haughton (guitarist) and Joe Isaacs (drummer) replacing various members alongside the ever present Jackie Mittoo. The Soul Brothers mix of musical styles is described as Ska, Jump-Up and Soul sounds. The track "Last Train to Skaville" signalled the end of the Ska era, as the Soul Brothers started to forge a new sound that by 1967 had become known as Rocksteady, a slowed down funky version of Ska. The main difference between the sound of The Skatalites and The Soul Brothers is the arrival of electric instrumentation such as Jackie¹s organ as well as electric guitar on some tracks. In 1967 Clement Dodd decided to take a group of musicians to England. Alongside the singers Alton Ellis and Ken Boothe, he asked Roland Alphonso, Jackie Mittoo, Johnny Moore, Lloyd Brevett, Bunny Williams and Errol Walters. This group would be named The Soul Vendors and signalled the end of the short-lived Soul Brothers. (Souljazz Records)

*Studio One Studio Backing Band* de Jamaica.
En agosto de 1965, apenas una semana después de la desaparición de los Skatalites originales, The Soul Brothers (con los ex miembros de los Skatalites Jackie Mittoo, Roland Alphonso, Johnny Moore y Lloyd Brevitt) se pusieron en marcha como la nueva banda de la casa en Studio One. Otros miembros de este grupo eran Wallin Cameron (guitarra) y Bunny Williams (batería). Esta publicación podría haberse llamado Rolando Alphonso and The Soul Brothers o simplemente The Soul Brothers, ya que el grupo era esencialmente un colectivo que publicaba material bajo su propio nombre o bajo un líder nominal (normalmente Jackie Mittoo o Rolando Alphonso). La formación del grupo cambió con el tiempo, con Bobby Ellis (trompeta), Bryan Atkinson (bajo), Dennis Campbell (saxo), Harry Haughton (guitarrista) y Joe Isaacs (batería) sustituyendo a varios miembros junto al siempre presente Jackie Mittoo. La mezcla de estilos musicales de los Soul Brothers se describe como sonidos Ska, Jump-Up y Soul. El tema "Last Train to Skaville" marcó el final de la era del Ska, ya que los Soul Brothers empezaron a forjar un nuevo sonido que en 1967 se conocía como Rocksteady, una versión funky ralentizada del Ska. La principal diferencia entre el sonido de The Skatalites y el de los Soul Brothers es la llegada de la instrumentación eléctrica, como el órgano de Jackie, así como la guitarra eléctrica en algunos temas. En 1967 Clement Dodd decidió llevar un grupo de músicos a Inglaterra. Junto a los cantantes Alton Ellis y Ken Boothe, pidió a Roland Alphonso, Jackie Mittoo, Johnny Moore, Lloyd Brevett, Bunny Williams y Errol Walters. Este grupo se llamaría The Soul Vendors y supuso el fin de los efímeros Soul Brothers. (Souljazz Records)
