The Allniters were a happy ensemble of Ska and Reggae players who came from Sydney NSW. They had a few hits throughout the 1980s. One of their biggest (#16 nationally) was a 1980's take on the old 1970 Bobby Bloom song "Montego Bay".The sound they had was hard to capture in the recording studio. "Montego Bay" sounded much brassier done live.
