The beloved harmony Jamaican group The Ethiopians released their debut album Engine 54 in 1968. Train imagery is the main focus on the album, with excellent falsettos and consistent music from the prime of the rock steady period. <i>Train to Skaville</i> is the hit classic which appeared on this specific album. It made an huge impact overseas and it brought the group their first tour in the UK. The Ethiopians was one of Jamaica’s most popular bands during the late ska, rocksteady and early reggae periods. The band was founded by Leonard Dillon, Stephen Taylor and Aston Morrison.<br><br>CD - This seminal album has been expanded to include the remainder of the group’s output from the rocksteady era and in so doing features numerous best sellers alongside a number of rarities from the latter half of 1968. 27 Tracks in total.

LP - Limited edition of 1000 individually numbered copies on 180 Gram solid orange coloured vinyl.
