      By the close of the 1960’s, Lloyd ‘Charmers’ Tyrell was firmly established as one of Jamaica’s premier talents, having previously made his mark as a key member of leading vocal outfits, The Charmers and The Uniques.

      His move into record production in 1968 swiftly resulted in numerous Jamaican hits, with his success attracting the attention London-based reggae music giant, Trojan Records, with whom he swiftly signed a licensing deal in 1969. As the ‘60s drew to a close, Trojan released ‘Reggae Is Tight’, on which the multi-talented Charmers demonstrated his keyboard-playing talents over a dozen fast-passed rhythm tracks. This is from the golden age of boss reggae sounds. A must for all true fans of vintage Jamaican sounds.
