Allniters - Montego Bay

The Allniters were an Australian ska pop band based in Sydney during 1980--1987.[1] Original line-up was Ted Ayers on sax, Dave Bebb on drums, Stuart Crysell on guitar, Martin Fabok on guitar, Peter Hill-Travis on vocals, Graham Hood on bass guitar, Brett Pattinson on vocals and Mark Taylor on keyboards.[1][2] Numerous changes occurred in band members with Fabok, Hill-Travis and Pattinson common to almost all line-ups.[1][2]
In 1983, The Allniters performed a ska-style cover of Bobby Bloom's hit "Montego Bay", which peaked at No. 16 on the Australian singles charts.[1][3] They followed with an album D-D-D-Dance, which contained the slower and more mainstream "Love and Affection" single, both album and single received wide airplay on radio stations around Australia and were top 40 hits.[1][3] More singles followed but Allniters separated for six months during 1985 and then continued on until July 1987 before disbanding more permanently.[1] They briefly reformed in 1999 to tour and then record,[1] Another Fine Mess was released before they disbanded once more, they reformed yet again during 2004 but no new material was released.

I remember seeing these guys play support for David Lee Roth's band, the first time they came to Australia. Such a bad pairing of support bands, these poor bastards were booed off stage by a bunch of pseudo-metal heads who didnt come to hear reggae/ska!
