    • 1. Temptation
    • 2. Temptation (Version)

    The Itals remain one of the most underestimated vocal trios in Reggae Music. “Temptation” was beautifully produced during the classical era of roots reggae in 1977 by ‘Manzie’ & ‘Bunny’ with studio band, the Ja-Man All Stars, led by legendary drummer Sly Dunbar, and included such luminaries of the scene as guitarist Eric “Bingy Bunny” Lamont, saxophonist “Deadly” Headley Bennett, trombonist Don Drummond Jr and bassist Robbie Shakespeare, among others.
