Ska music is alright IMO, don't know what you think of it,
Madness and the Specials are who I've been listening to today...

The Specials are awesome.
And go back to the first wave - Prince Buster, Skatalites etc. Where it all started.

(a more reggae verson of the tune though).
Buster has a mad bio, used to be a boxer and be security at the early big sound system parties. Also the first person to record nyabinghi drumming on a record (the original Oh Carolina with Count Ossie's drummers).

Ranking full stop by The beat is one of me favourite tunes ever! Some cracking ska out there, from aaall over. Nuff wicked jamaican roots style stuff that I reckon could be called ska, and its the absoloute dogs. The whole 2-tone thing im for the most part a bit divided over though, theres a huge list of tunes that are nothing short of amazing...but at the same time theres also alot of crap, and so much stuff that I actually find a genuine disliking for as opposed to just not giving a shit.
Then, the whole third wave ska/punk stuff. Hmm
Never know what to think tbh, listening to it now it is very much for the best part truly awful, however, used to love the stuff back in the day, and I swear down the atmosphere at a ska night can be just amazing. People are so genuinely into the music, its wicked. But...I just cannae stand it cap'n
Fuull stop! Mi ranking full stop! BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH
