    They are bloody brilliant. We watched them live in Wolverhampton recently and I can tell you I was in awe. The negative comments are stupid. It's like saying she was beautiful at 16 now she looks crap cause she's 50! This gig doesn't capture the atmosphere as it does live. Believe me they may be older than in the 80's but they are still fantastic

      I sat down and had a cup of coffee with Rico Rodriguez once in Exeter, he told me that Brad was the best Ska drummer he had ever worked with.
      He said that Brad understood the Jamaican way of drumming low on the kit.
      There is another clip somewhere of Brad drumming with the camera looking directly down on him, its astonishing.
      Roddy Byers told me that one of the reasons Brad was so good was that he could switch styles effortlessly and within a song, so he could combine elements of Ska, Soul and Rock seamlessly.
