Originally released in the UK on the blue Coxsone label with stamped matrix. Subsequent JA represses have the same matrix and were released in the same laminated sleeve. ((Click sleeve to enlarge.))

The Hitonairs were the regular house band at the Jamaica Hilton Hotel in Ocho Rios (hence their name), but they also played in many of the island's other plush hotels, as well as completing several tours of the USA and Canada.
