One Original Step Beyond: the Story of Ska

Search: 007 (Shanty Town) - Dekker- Desmond
by: Various Artists

Release Date May 01, 1993
Top quality ska beats to take you back to the days when Prince Buster was king and a seat on the train to Skaville was 2 and 6. What will surprise those not familiar with ska music is how original it was back in the day, and how it has been copied, rerecorded and sampled by generations. Hopefully the cover artists did the right thing and acknowledged the Jamaican legends, but you will be surprised to hear break, beats and the back catalogues to Madness, UB40 and the Specials roll out before you. Even coming back to this music after all these years I cannot ever get tired of Harry J and the Allstars or the street beats of Dave and Ansell Collins.

Ska: AKA

Search: 007 (Shanty Town) - Dekker- Desmond
by: Various Artists

Release Date November 03, 2003
What a truly marvelous album. Obviously aimed squarely at my post forty demographic, who witnessed the emergence of two tone and the ska revival that followed.
It could have dropped the fishbone track and the buster bloody blood vessels special brew in favour of say The Maytals "Pressure Drop", The Pioneers "Time Hard" and "Long shot kick de bucket". These are only minor quibbles. Go on, buy it.
