@Marc Franics -- Glad to hear that! It's fun for me each week to put it together. Just dump a bunch of LPs, CDs, and singles on the floor and start making connections.

Hi Mike and Matt!

Matt from New Orleans:

It’s interesting that the album namers left the “n” in the name. I think Ska-tastic sounds much better.

@Matt C -- "The Harder They Come" was really crucial LP that made me investigate more Jamaican music.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 12:34pm
Mike Sin:

Hey there, Ken -- thanks for tunin' in today!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 12:38pm
Matt Clarke:

Love this one
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 12:39pm
Mike Sin:

johnk77 -- That's true! All these rocksteady tracks have all the treble completely rolled off the bass guitar. It does shake the house.

Frank In Queens:

Mike, we use that brand, but we're out right now. Damn stiff towels!

You're kilkin' it today, Mike! :))
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 12:42pm
Mike Sin:

@johnk77 -- when I was a kid (100 years ago), the LPs featuring Jamaican music that were the easiest to find and most influential in the US were "The Harder They Come" soundtrack and "Funky Kingston" by Toots and the Maytals.
