Treasure Isle’s 1968 rocksteady gem returns! Featuring Jamaican greats Tommy McCook, Alton Ellis, Phyllis Dillon, The Paragons, The Jamaicans, and Joya Landis, this long-lost classic is officially reissued for the first time—fully restored and remastered in pure vintage style. An essential collectible for reggae lovers and rocksteady devotees alike.

Come Rock With Me In Jamaica returns for the first time under its original 1968 title and sleeve on the famed Treasure Isle label. Originally released in Jamaica by Treasure Isle and retitled Soul of Jamaica in the UK by Trojan, this reissue restores the album to its authentic Jamaican identity.

Featuring reggae titan Tommy McCook, leader of the Skatalites, alongside Rocksteady godfather Alton Ellis, top Treasure Isle vocalist Phyllis Dillon, and The Paragons, Come Rock With Me In Jamaica represents a golden era of musical innovation and collaboration. The album also showcases luminaries like Joya Landis and The Jamaicans, delivering timeless tracks such as ‘Woman Go Home’.

Originally laid down at Treasure Isle Recording Studios and produced by pioneering Jamaican producer Arthur ‘Duke’ Reid, this fully restored and remastered album grooves hard with Tommy McCook’s backing band, The Supersonics, and Jamaica’s finest—bringing the heat, soul, and unstoppable rhythm of Rocksteady. A limited-edition reissue not to miss!
