I'm of the opinion that this is the peak of rocksteady. The vocal melodies of Alton Ellis on Sunday Coming are as good as it gets, and I'm not sure the Studio One band ever sounded tighter. Ellis and Coxsone Dodd wrote the bulk of the songs, including standouts "Hurting Me" and "Gonna Take A Miracle". The few covers are well curated, including the perfectly executed version of Motown classic "You Make Me So Happy."
