Absolutely The Uniques is the debut album by Jamaican vocal trio The Uniques, originally released in 1969 on the Trojan label. The Uniques possessed the qualities of excellent stage appearance and the ability to make hit records in rapid succession. The band's classic line-up of Slim Smith, Lloyd Charmers and Jimmy Riley would record a series of superior sides with legendary producer Bunny Lee, most notably The Impressions' "Gypsy Woman," the soulful original "Speak No Evil" and the haunting "My Conversation". Charmers produced the cover of Buffalo Springfield's 1967 hit "For What It's Worth" (aka "Watch This Sound"), which was originally released on the group's own Tramp label. As 1968 drew to a close, these recordings along with the remainder of their best-known songs to date were compiled for their debut album, Absolutely The Uniques, which unusual for the time was released as a full-price collection by Trojan in the UK.
