Real ska is alright (Jamaican jazz circa 1960-1966).Hell, 2nd wave ska sucks too.I hate the Specials. They took some classic early reggae songs and pretty much killed them. Madness, Selecter,Specials etc. it's all sped up reggae, sung with that snotty limey style. Dave & Ansil Collins, the Maytals, Lee Perrys' Uppsetters, Laurel Aitken, Derrick Morgan, etc. did it 1st and did it best circa 1968-72. Some called it Skinhead Reggae...that's what I'm talking about!! |

music can get. Regurgitate the worst of 2nd wave ska and lame repetitve hardcore, and there you go. There's some decent groups out there, but I find myself linking them more with the 2nd wave, as the don 't feel the need to throw a bunch of heavy distored guitars in the mix, I'm talking Mu330 and BoyoBoy here. You can't beat original sixties ska though - The Maytals, Desmond Dekker, the Skatalites, The Wailers, Laurel Aitken, and all the rest. You can keep the rest. |
