In England, born in 1986, I grew up on these guys amongst others. My late mothers music taste was impeccable. Thanks for reviewing.
The specials , selector , madness , the beat, the bodysnatchers bad manners were all ska bands that started in the late 70s early 80s and they sounded pretty much the same live as they did on the records . Look for a video on you tube called dance craze , it will give you a real good idea of what they were like.
Love the Specials and love this song. I especially love the song Ghost Town.
Yes, can’t wait for rest of your Ska reactions! Ska is so diverse, it has so many variations within it. I really hope you get to listen to some Pop Punk/Ska like Reel Big Fish, Zebrahead, Less than Jake etc 🖤
Jamaican ska from 60s was the precursor to reggae. This is part of the British revival of that music in the late 70s/early 80s.
50's
Yeah, this is two-tone ska.
Ska was late 50s-60s then rocksteady which was around 68 then reggae which was late 60s early 70s
if you live in the UK - you love some 2 Tone / SKA , its a great sound :)
One of my favourite bass lines to play. Their other most famous song Ghost Town is another. Cracking music made on satirising Britain growing up in working class parts of the Country.
Ghost Town is quality :)
Ghost Town is indeed an amazing song!
Ska started in Jamaica in the late 50s pulling influences from American jazz and rhythm and blues so most early ska you can hear the jazz influences in instrumental tracks. I recommend listening to the skatalites for this. Then in the late 60s ska slowed down into rocksteady which was a much more soulful music taking the rhythm and blues and soul influences even further I recommend listening to Alton Ellis and songs like “let him try”. Then eventually it slowed down into boss reggae or skinhead reggae for this I recommend listening to “skinhead moonstomp” by symarip then slowed down into the reggae we all know and love.Ska culture at the time in the late 70s was a mish mash of the punk,mod and skinhead subcultures. Skinhead and mod saw a mass revival in the late 70s because of the two tone movement and punk movement . Also when I say skinheads I mean the subculture that’s from the late 60s which was about black and white uniting over their love for ska and reggae music and their shared clothing styles nothing to do with the neo Nazis now associated with the word.
I'm just a year or so older than you. When I was a 15yo Punk Rocker in a small town in Southern Bavaria in the early 80s, Punk Rock, Reggae and Ska were all me and my friends listened to. I particularly loved Ghost Town by the Specials. Nowadays I'm more into traditional Country Music, which is - just like Punk Rock - three chords and the truth.
Great album I wish though that there were more original songs on it. This is a Dandy Livingstone original from 67. Gangsters was a lift of Judge Dread by Prince Buster, Stupid Marriage was based on a Loydie and the Lowbites song Birth Control.
I'm a huge Ska Two tone fan and the radio was dull so I popped on the headphones and looked for Ska reactions. I found you and loved your analysis. I bet you are an inspirational music teacher. Wish I had one back in the 70's.
Trombone solo! This ruled my world in 1983! And they are fucking with skinheads!
the B&W skinny black outfits and ties and hat was the de facto uniform of the British Ska movement. Also bands always had to have black and white members as race relations /equality /strife was a common topic in their lyrics :-) 😊
This is filling in my gaps as well! Thanks!!! Keep up the good work!
"A Message" was the one everyone kinda knew, but "Ghost Town" was the actual hit and a hell of a sonic experience! I know vids on ska probably won't get as much viewership as your other stuff, but as a fan of your pop punk and metal content, I vote for more ska and especially that song haha!! It's actually more reggae, but way more listenable casually, and musical. Madness is an essential band I don't see here though, Howie's doing you dirty there, you probably have heard "It Must Be Love" a gazillion times but "Baggy Trousers" is a UK ska ESSENTIAL ❤️💙❤️💙
This is a cover of dandy Livingston , Rudy is slang for rude boy
Two Tone ska is amazing stuff.
The entire Specials first album is incredibly strong.
It's a great album. However it's mostly covers.
@@karlschneider9479 The Beatles and The Rolling Stones did a lot of covers early on, too.
You should check out Is It Really You?-Sleep Token and Loathe. Its a beautiful yet haunting song. It will leave you speechless! I know you’ll love it
Sleep token is so good!
Please check out Fun Boy Three - Our Lips Are Sealed. The band consists of three ex members from The Specials, Terry, Neville and Lynval. It’s not ska, more new wavey. For other recommendations I’d love to see you react to Roxy Music - Oh Yeah (On the Radio) or Squeeze - Trust me to open my mouth. Or any songs from these three bands, would love to see your reaction.
you are correct about the trombone player.. that is rico rodriguez a graduate of alpha boys school in jamacia. alpha boys school was a musical school in the 50's who taught kids to play instruments. the most famous of all the graduates would be the members of the Skatalites. the skatalites was the backing band for a large amount of the ska that was produced in the early years. here is a sample of what the skatalites sounded like.. ruclips.net/video/U9rZ-SxG1Uw/видео.html
From what I remember, it has been a long time since my rude boy days, Jamaican SKA originates from musicians listening to US radio and imitating the songs, giving it what becomes the SKA rhythm
Edit: Realized how vague i made that, it was in the 60s in Jamaica and they were listening to mostly Big Band on the radio
They were also listening to R&B and soul! That part was more evident with rocksteady which came after ska.
This is second-wave ska, so it would come after reggae. For original ska, check out the Skatalites.
Ska is not a precursor to reggae it is a fusion of reggae and western styles like punk and two tone.
Ska IS a precursor to reggae. Ska, as you understand it, is not the original ska, which originated in Jamaica.
Really enjoyed your reaction. It's meant to be a little Punky. London and all that. Great observations regarding what they were getting at. Just subbed . All the best to you
This is the second wave of ska from the 80's. Second wave was a combo of ska and punk. if you want to listen to what the original ska from the 60's is like listen to ruclips.net/video/HvGoGx_jPz4/видео.html The original ska was a combo of jazz, R&B, mento (Jamaican folk music) and boogaloo.
Mr. Music Teacher how about doing a reactiln the the Skatalites El Pussycat Ska or The Wailing Wailers Simmer Down the Skatalites backed them on that which was Bob Marley's 1st hit.
real deal ska................
you are digging into a ton of my favorite stuff man..................
Clutch, Sublime, The Toadies..............
Please please please, do the band Every Time I Die - "Post-Boredom". Other popular tracks include "Thing With Feathers", "Decayin' With The Boys", and "Map Change"
Oh man you'll need to get into third wave ska after this! I'm not a big fan of this Era but I love what came after.
I liked English Beat, Madness, General Public and Ian Dury & Blockheads
And the precursor to ska was mento...
Dave and Ansell Collins would be a good shout for some more ska :)
Bob Marley used to sing ska.... Mr brown
Omg! Music Teacher knows nothing! Ska came after Reggae and was a fusion, along with Rock Steady/Northern Soul, yes... a lot of these bands were booked together (punk/Ska etc). Also we understood the lyrics.
Yes, complete nothing!
Ska came before reggae, it started around 1961-62 in Jamaica. This mix of ska, rock steady etc that The Specials and other bands played was also fantastic but started in 1979. But I agree with you that this music teacher should check some facts before he makes comments like "this trombone player must be a jazz musician". This trombone player is the legendary Rico Rodriguez that played ska ever since the beginning, also in Dandy Livingstone's original version of this song in 1967.
This song is not Ska, it's a botched cover of a Rocksteady hit.
OMG kiddies I'mma do a reaction to JAZZ: the precursor to Rock and Roll. *Plays Barney Miller theme*
DIMASH REACT PLEASE SHOW MUST GO ON
Day #16 asking for a 5-By of Sammy Rae and the Friends. Man these days go by quick.
(Btw in response to your last comment, I'm not mad or impatient at all, this is mostly for the meme of it.)
This isn't Ska, it's Two tone.
Ｐｒⓞм??? ?
They're not of tune, you are.
Always
But I totally agree with you, it's just fun!
And you're also right, the roots of ska are in Jazz, just check out The Skatalites, one of the OG ska bands
