Jackie Mittoo, teclista, compositor y arreglista jamaicano conocido como uno de los arquitectos del ska, el rocksteady y el reggae, nació el 3 de marzo de 1948 en Kingston (Jamaica). Desde muy joven mostró un talento musical excepcional, estudiando piano y composición clásica, lo que le permitió desarrollar un estilo único, que combinaba la técnica del jazz y la sensibilidad tradicional jamaicana. En los años sesenta, se unió a The Skatalites, la famosa banda de ska instrumental, como teclista y arreglista. Su dominio del piano y el órgano Hammond se convirtió en un elemento fundamental del sonido del grupo, contribuyendo a definir el ritmo y la atmósfera característicos del ska. Al mismo tiempo, se convirtió en director musical del sello Studio One, dirigido por Clement "Coxsone" Dodd. Compuso, arregló y tocó en numerosos éxitos instrumentales y vocales, trabajando con artistas tan emblemáticos como Alton Ellis, The Heptones, The Abyssinians, The Wailing Souls, Hopetown Lewis, Delroy Wilson, Leroy Smart, Dennis Brown y Tappa Zukie. Participó activamente en The Soul Brothers (1965-1967), Soul Vendors, Sound Dimension y Soul Defenders. Sus composiciones como "Darker Shade of Black ", "Drum Song " y "Feel Like Jumping " se convirtieron rápidamente en clásicos del reggae y el rocksteady. Bajo su propio nombre, grabó los álbumes In London (1967), Evening Time (1968), Keep on Dancing (1969), Now (1970) y Macka Fat (1970). En 1970 emigró a Canadá y se instaló en Toronto, donde continuó su carrera como músico, productor y compositor. Formó su propia banda y publicó varios álbumes en solitario, entre ellos Wishbone (1971), Let's Put It All Together (1975) y The Money Makers (1978). Firmó con el sello británico Third World para producciones como Hot Blood (1977), The Keyboard King (1978) e In Cold Blood (1978), en las que exploraba sonidos instrumentales de reggae y dub, al tiempo que conservaba sus raíces ska y rocksteady. El 16 de diciembre de 1990, Jackie Mittoo murió de cáncer en un hospital de Toronto a la edad de 42 años. Su fama había crecido con los años y se habían redescubierto sus producciones de los años 60. Fue objeto de numerosas recopilaciones y peticiones para colaborar con artistas internacionales. Su forma de tocar el órgano y el piano, que combina la sofisticación armónica y el groove, ha inspirado a muchos músicos de reggae, ska, dub e incluso música electrónica. Entre sus antologías, aclamadas por la crítica, figuran Tribute to Jackie Mittoo (1995), The Keyboard King at Studio One (2000) y Champion in the Arena 1976-1977 (2003).
