The Itals
Keith Porter got his start in1967 then known as the Westmorelites (named after Jamaica's Westmoreland parish where Keith grew up) with the hit single "Hitey Titey" which he recorded for Clement "Coxsone" Dodds' of Studio One. In 1976 he came out with the classic hit single - "Ina Dis Ya Time" Shortly thereafter he formed a vocal trio called the Itals that included harmony vocalists. Their name came from the Jamaican patois word meaning natural or pure. The Itals were soon recognized as one of reggae's premier "harmony groups." In contrast to the violence and sexism that runs through some of dancehall's most popular tunes, the Itals' roots reggae sound remains focused on positivity, love and harmony.
"Got to reveal, got to reveal. The truth that is hid, has got to reveal", chant the Itals. "Sing farewell to my enemies. Sing farewell to my enemies -- Alphas love is over me." The Itals songs are always uplifting. "Temptation is a thing trying to keep me away from Jah glory. I love, I love, I love - Jah glory." When the Itals hit the stage, "Jah glory" is in full manifestation.
