    When Jamaicans first arrived in the UK they brought with them a style of music, two tone and Ska for example. That music was very soon adopted by bands such as Madness among others. The word Buster was used a lot, it was a nod to Prince Buster a Jamaican singer, song writer and producer. It brought a lot of people together here in the UK at that time. Madness was known as Nutty dread with there own style of dancing.

    • @s12856
      @s12856 3 года назад +6

      I think 'Two Tone' was the fusion of the ska/reggae influences the Carribeans (mainly Jamaican) brought over, and the British music of the time i.e punk rock and some new wave. And the genre's name and the checkered black and white pattern that's associated with it is to represent that fusion of black and white music.
      I may be wrong but that's how I always thought of it.

    • @zargonthemagnificent330
      @zargonthemagnificent330 3 года назад +3

      Two Tone was originally the name of the independent UK record label that released most of the new ska bands in the late 1970s, such as Madness, The Selecter, and The Specials. The UK music media started to refer to the whole scene as Two Tone a year or two later.

    Cathal Smyth, AKA "Chas Smash" who does the intro and the lead vocals here, wasn't even part of the band when this video was made. Heck he's not even in the cover picture of the album.
    - So what is he even doing here?
    Well he was the band's original bass player but left to pursue other interests. Leaving under friendly terms, he always came around when the band had gigs and became the band's party dude, joining them on stage where for the heck of it, they had him recite the rap instead of usual lead singer Graham "Suggs" McPherson.
    So when the band were recording their first album they went "We HAVE to include 'One step beyond!' " and knowing how well Chas did that song live, they brought him in and he KILLED IT. From that on, Chas re-joined the band officially, playing trumpet and doing the occasional lead vocal but in general being there to create mayhem on stage.

    YES! Love Madness! There are so many songs for you to check out. To try and narrow it a bit, though, I suggest "Night Boat to Cairo", "Bed and Breakfast Man", "The Prince" (a tribute to Prince Buster who originally did One Step Beyond), "Madness" (another Prince Buster cover and where their name came from), "Tarzan's Nuts", "Swan Lake", "Shut Up", "Missing You", "Waltz Into Mischief", "In the City", "House of Fun", "Driving in My Car", "Sorry", and "In the Hall of the Mountain King". This list ended up being longer than I intended, but still shorter than it could've been 😊 Oh, and thanks for not stopping at "Our House". It's nice when people find out they're more than that.

    Saw Madness with OIngo Boingo, The Fixx, The Thompson Twins and The Police at the Oakland Alameda Coliseum in September 1983. What an amazing concert! So glad you're getting to understand how great these ska bands were back then (and now).

    Btw Madness got their name from an old Prince Buster song called Madness which Madness also covered so well. Also the first single by Madness called The Prince is a tribute to the legendary Prince Buster. Check it out. 😎

    "Pressure Drop" is a ska classic that you should check out. It was done originally by Toots and the Maytals in 1968, and has been covered by several artists, but The Specials version is my favorite. (You should also try some Third World - "Try Jah Love" or "Now that we've Found Love". Not ska, more reggae influenced, but I think you'd really like them)

    Gosh, I love these guys. I remember the very first time I heard this. I was in the Fastlane in Asbury Park with my best friend (in either late ‘79 or ‘80), and this video came on the tv. I was immediately smitten. I also recall seeing a Plasmatics video there that night as well, but I’m not sure you’re ready for Wendy O. 🤣 And now, since this happens every single time I hear Madness or even think of them, Suggs will appear in my dreams... which I don’t mind one single bit. 💜
    “Baggy Trousers”
    “House of Fun”
    “Must Be Love”

    You hit the nail on the head about so many of my fellow Brits. We do NOT take ourselves too seriously.

    When I took part in an amateur production of Our House (the musical based on the songs of Madness) we opened the show with the entire cast and chorus bursting into the auditorium and dancing through the audience to this song. It was the perfect way to open the show because the energy in the room when we did it was just INSANE.
    For another fun, high energy song by this band you should absolutely check out Baggy Trousers.

    Watch the Dance Craze film; basically, pretty much a greatest hits of 2Tone. I get the Madness thing as they're great fun, but I prefer the more political tunes of the time, so the Specials obviously and, believe it or not, before they went all commercial, UB40. One in Ten (live with Mikey Dread is the best version as it transforms into Roots and Culture), ten minutes of brilliance!

    One Step Beyond was originally done by the late Jamaican artist Prince Buster in 1964 on the Blue Beat label - still have the old version. Love that Madness did it their way and were part of the "Two Tone" explosion of the in 70s they and others gave a platform to some of the old forgotten Ska and Reggae stars.

  • @buffstraw2969
    @buffstraw2969 3 года назад

    The basic tune here was composed by Harry Lubin, for a 1960s sci-fi TV series called "One Step Beyond," which was a "Twilight Zone"-type of show. The original Lubin tune was slow-paced, eerie, and moody. But Madness sped up the rhythm and turned it into a danceable groove.

    If you want to know how beloved Madness are here in the U.K., nothing demonstrates it better than this snippet from a biography about the band.
    “When Madness performed at ‘Madstock' in Finsbury Park, London, in 1992, the 33,000 dancing fans created a tremor that registered 4.2 on the Richter scale and local residents feared they were experiencing an earthquake.”
    It’s absolutely true and made the headlines in newspapers and TV news broadcasts.
    Now that’s enthusiastic fans having the time of their lives 😂

    I and a group of friends went to Dieppe in France in1981. It was at the height of the Madness craze. We all went in the Madness outfits of Harrington jackets, jeans, Ben Sherman shirt , braces and Doc Martin boots We all did the Madness walk in the middle of the town. We got many strange looks from the people.
