Originally formed in 1967 by the Palmer brothers - Harry, Jeff and Carl – Pama Records was a pioneer in bringing Jamaican and UK ska, soul, rocksteady and reggae to the charts.

The book celebrates the vast number of recordings Pama released between 1967-1975 and shines a light on the artists and producers that made it possible.
