THE Tamlins, consisting of Carlton Smith, Derrick Lara and Junior Moore, started out as a nightclub act in 1970 and by 1972 had won the "Most Outstanding Group" award in Jamaica.

Inevitably, numerous local artists were clamoring for the sweet harmony of The Tamlins as backing vocals. Willingly they threw their musical weight behind performances of artists such as Delroy Wilson, Pat Kelly, John Holt, Jimmy Cliff and Peter Tosh. They later toured the United States, France, Germany, Italy, Denmark, Sweden, Holland, South America and the Eastern Caribbean Islands with Peter Tosh.

Out of the Tosh relationship developed a rapport with the famed 'rhythm twins', Sly and Robbie of Taxi Productions. The Tamlins' first single on the Taxi Label was Star, to be followed by Laying Beside You Baby and then the remake of Nina Simone's Baltimore, which was also released internationally by EMI. Baltimore held the NO.1 spot in Jamaica for twelve weeks. Indisputably, it was judged the "Number One Record of the Year" in Jamaica on JBC's "Top 100" for 1980. The group also won the "Best Group Award" from JBC, Radio Jamaica and the Daily News that same year.

In 1986, The Tamlins performed on "Dancehall '86" at Cinema One with Half Pint, Josey Wales and Culture, among others. They not only got a standing ovation, but this was judged the "Best Performance of 1986" at the annual Rockers Awards Show. They also "tore the house down" at Sunsplash '86 and the Taxi Connection Shows that same year, with one of the songs the which you are bidding for here !
