Originally known as The Hep Ones, they were signed by Clement 'Coxsone' Dodd shortly after their debut and stayed with Studio One until 1971. Seeking more creative freedom, they left Studio One to work with Joe Gibbs and later teamed up with Lee 'Scratch' Perry to update their sound. Their first album with Perry, "Party Time," gained them international popularity by featuring new versions of their best Studio One tracks.
