I thought "Bluebeat" was a blanket term for all 'Jamaican' music of the early '60s: Ska, Jamaican R&B, and (later) Rocksteady. I could be mistaken. Cool tune, whatever it's called. |

Interesting. I had never heard of 'Blue-beat'. Gotta learn about it. But I expect, like most genres, there's a whole continuum, and there's no clear dividing line. |

Top grade Ska has been proved to be good for you. As long as you don't over do it, it will make you three inches taller and smell nicer. Trust me, I'm a doctor.
Thanks doc I be taking me medicine mon!
Great to see no one knocking this music all positive! |

Awesome song, i can't believe I'm going to be playing with Cedric Im Brooks and Kevin Batchelor ..AGAIN! No music makes you feel as good as ska and reggae does, and the Skatalites keep the music alive

Fantastic set Bill! Floyd to Gabriel/Bush, something I'd never heard from N'dour, and now ska. Nothing but 'net!  |
