Toots & The Maytals.. I have "Time Tough: The Anthology" 2 disc set and it's GREAT! I also have a Skatalites cd "Stretching Out" and that's good too, but you already know that. |

Get the trojan record compilations. There are many of them. |

Paul, for a corny enjoyable ska album, try getting your hands on Gangster Fun -- "Time Flies When You're Gangster Fun". You might also like *early* Mighty Mighty Bosstones. |

OK, let me clarify--I'm thinking most of you morons who said they hated ska, don't have a fucking clue WHAT ska is. Ska is NOT 1990s White (mainly) American fuckers, that is either Punk-Ska or part of the Third Wave Ska Revival, which is, from what I've heard, mostly bilge. I'm not even talking about Ska Revival and Two-Tone, which came about in the late 1970s, tho i'm a big fan of The Specials. I'm talking about Ska, which predates Rocksteady and Reggae... from the early to mid 1960s, the kind I like being instrumental, so The Skatalites are doing it for me right now. Ska is akin to Jazz, not Rock. |

if you like first-wave ska there actually is a bit of 90's ska (third wave) that you'll probably like too. there actually was a broad spectrum of ska bands at that time, even though the ska-punk fusion was the sound most indicitive of the era. and the sheer concentration of bands of that style made it kind of annoying after a certain point. but for good stuff check out hepcat, lets go bowling, western allstars, new york ska-jazz ensamble. alot of ska bands (even skacore) are mixed race. really except for first wave jamacian ska its always been mixed. personally i like a bit from every era of ska. i just got a nice two-tone live comp used recently with some great versions of cuts by madness, selecter, the specials. |

Seriously, check out Toots & The Maytals if you haven't. It's original stuff, he started in the early 70s and just released an album this year (which I haven't heard - I only have the anthology). It's not new American stuff, although I dig some of that too. I really like 2 Tone stuff too, especially The Specials' first record. |

Marlowe, I know what you are saying. Especially the gritty dirty recorded tracks. You should check out an old marely track called burial. It's a rare tosh cover I think. It was a single. Really incredible, but yeah. I like this instrumental ska track called clint eastwood. Anyway, gimmie some track names. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
The upsetters, Derrick Morgan,etc.. |
||||||||
|
|

|

I cannot emphasize enough how much you need to hear this track. Burial(rare) on soulseek. |

Modern white people ska pop is horrible, but some of the old authentic stuff is nice. ~fleetmouse pick up madlibs blunted in the bomb shelter comp. the trojan box sets are good. the skattelites, cant forget them. toots and the maytals, classic stuff.. the specials'. |
