Phil Philips' R&B jam, "Sea of Love," was also covered by the Heptones, a Jamaican ska and reggae from in the 1960s.
Here is the original 1959 version of the song:

It's standard doo wop/R&B of the 1950s, but with an amazing vocalist and great melody

They change it up a bit with the reggae beat and their accented vocals are definitely not as pleasing as Phil Phillips.
