Jet Star was formed in 1978 by the Palmer Brothers, who had previously run Pama Records. The new company began releasing records on its Charm label. The Reggae Hits series was started in 1984 and becoming the world's longest-running series of reggae compilations. Further series of album releases followed, including Just Ragga, Pure Lovers, and Jungle Hits. Some of their most successful titles were reissued on their Reggae Gold and Reggae Max labels, which are considered among the best introductions to the artists featured. In 2008 Jet Star went into administration and was sold to Phoenix Music International Ltd.
