The Inspirations were essentially a duo of <a href="spotify:artist:7qpIVsKROCzgdW9JnjrDm8">Jimmy London</a> (<a href="spotify:artist:7qpIVsKROCzgdW9JnjrDm8">Trevor Shaw</a>) and Billy Dyce (Ransford White), who were active on the Jamaican music scene at the end of the 1960s and into the early '70s. They initially worked with producer <a href="spotify:artist:1TsG4AumsMt1Tcq2nHpov9">Lee "Scratch" Perry</a>, and their song "Tighten Up," recorded at Studio One, was actually <a href="spotify:artist:1TsG4AumsMt1Tcq2nHpov9">Perry</a>'s first independent production (<a href="spotify:artist:1TsG4AumsMt1Tcq2nHpov9">Perry</a>, for some reason, called the group the Untouchables when the single was released). The Inspirations also recorded several fine tracks for <a href="spotify:artist:4ekhrcrW3PAAoplC9IxnBx">Joe Gibbs</a> between 1969 and 1971, most of which are collected on the group's only album, Reggae Fever. After their sessions with <a href="spotify:artist:4ekhrcrW3PAAoplC9IxnBx">Gibbs</a>, the duo returned to working with <a href="spotify:artist:1TsG4AumsMt1Tcq2nHpov9">Perry</a>, before splitting for solo careers in 1971. ~ Steve Leggett, Rovi
