Rasta Pon Top

The Twinkle Brothers' classic debut album, Rasta Pon Top, was originally issued in the UK on the old Grounation label in 1975 and has now been reissued.

After winning local talent competitions, they recorded their first single, "Somebody Please Help Me," in 1966 for producer Leslie Kong. This was followed by sessions for other top Jamaican producers such as Duke Reid, Lee "Scratch" Perry, Sid Bucknor, Phil Pratt, and Bunny Lee.

The band worked in the late 1960s and early 1970s on the island's hotel circuit, playing a mixture of calypso, soul, pop, and soft reggae. In the early 1970s, they began producing their own recordings.

The Twinkle Brothers' debut album, Rasta Pon Top, was released in 1975. The album features strongly Rastafari-oriented songs such as "Give Rasta Praise" and "Beat Them Jah Jah." Now, it has been given the reissue treatment by Burning Sound.
