Charly Records presents MANY MOODS OF BY ALTON ELLIS

A Reggae pioneer and icon since the 50s, Alton Ellis inspired many singers of his generation and influenced the genre throughout the decades.

As a prolific and multidisciplinary artist, Alton Ellis constantly reinvented himself to deliver high-flying musical content.

Critically acclaimed when first released in 1980, Many Moods Of is an essential 10-tracker filled with emotion which focuses on the great man's roots period.

Bringing together a stellar line-up of artists, engineers and producers, this album represents the epitome of reggae excellence at the time, with a soulful power that still resonates more than forty years on.
