Don't know the personnel but they were recording from approx 1966 into the early 70's, firstly as Dion Cameron & The Three Tops, then just as Three Tops for Treasure isle, Coxsone etc. The also recorded as The Soul Tops and did a version of Chuck Jackson's Good Things Come To Those Who Wait. The latest record I remember seeing by them was Three Tops Medley issued in 1972.

It's a shame that more Jamaican groups didn't take the names of their American counterparts and decrease or add to the membership by one,,, Just think, they could have had: The Sweet 2 Soul Brothers 5 The 3 Seasons The 5 Perfections The 4 Degrees Sam & Dave & Kitty Pic & Sam & Bill The 8 Souls The 5 Vandals Frankie Beverly & the Butler The 6 Du-Tones The Girls 2 - Jess, Dot and nobody else... ...Now, where DID I put that blessed coat...
