Wot?

I know it is not strictly ska, but did the rounds in a cool ska club in Hull I used to go to and worked brilliantly.

Proper PROPER ska?

Lord Large featuring Dean Parrish - Left, Right and Centre.

or

Madness - Nightboat to Cairo.

But probably my favourite is:

The Specials - Little Bitch

 

[The Large One]

I know it is not strictly ska, but did the rounds in a cool ska club in Hull I used to go to and worked brilliantly.

It's not even REMOTELY ska.

Which aspect of early 1960s pre-independence Jamaican culture is contained within this tune?

[Brighton Breezy]

I know. It just became a throw-in favourite on ska nights I used to go to and it worked well.

I ruddy KNEW you would point that out as soon as I posted it. You ska tinker.

Is this one of those gigs that everyone says they were at? I was there too, sat next to Animal in the bar upstairs while the support was on, Chelsea, Chron Gen and the Defects? Had a brief chat, he said something along the lines of "why am I here? I hate going on stage, I could be at home with the wife having dinner and a beer"

Anyway, ANL, supporting Motorhead on their UK tour this year.
