Ska and Bruce Greene go hand in hand, you can’t talk about one with out mentioning the other.

I like how Bruce Greene is now the leading reference point for ska on the internet, slightly ahead of Madness, The Specials, a bunch of other ska/reggae bands, Reel Big Fish and then Darren Barrett.

I thought it was really interesting when I saw the Bob Marley documentary, and the Wailers were talking about how reggae came from bad musicians trying to play ska.

[@Josep_Hernandez_Lujan]

@@jdroofcleanpw When you are too stoned to play fast so your ska comes out as reggae

[@rmv9194]

@@Josep_Hernandez_Lujan Not exactly the same rythmic pattern. Drums are different, bass is different, even the guitar strumming pattern (this is the only reason people say they are the same, but they aren't exactly equal). You could play slow ska (some skatalites songs are reggae slow, but they sound different, cause they are just slow ska). Fast reggae isn't common tho but it would not sound like ska.

Ska is pretty dope tho. Streetlight Manifesto's album "everything goes numb" is honestly one of the best albums out there, and Mustard Plugs song "mister smiley" is an extremely enjoyable song. I'M NOT INSECURE, YOU'RE INSECURE.

They'll be dropping a new album next year. And I also recommend The Mighty Bosstones and Rx Bandits

[@ChaingunCassidy]

That skanking was too on point to make me believe he was just acting.

[@OrangeHarrisonRB3]

My music tutor told me when I was young that Ska was the only genre in history that was able to see multiple revolutions in pop culture, recording technology, and musical innovation while still managing to not mature or improve at all. He also used the word "molested" instead of "covered" when referring to songs like "Come On Eileen" and "Why Can't We Be Friends"

[@pvshka]

I'm sorry, but Smash Mouth's version of "Why can't we be friends" is the only version I'll accept.

[@Hellwyck]

Since neither War nor Dexys were ska bands, he's talking shit.

@@LatinaCreamQueen Facts. I caught Catch-22 and later Streetlight a couple times and it really didn't matter if ya liked ska or not lol The shows were always like a big ass party where punks, skins, band kids, ska heads, reggae fans, and pretty much everybody could come together for some beers and smoke. Took my boy to see RBF as a goodbye gift 10-12 years ago at Hard Rock Live and it was wild too cause all ya could smell was the smell of weed in their non-smoking building 😂 Though it made me sick to pay $30 to see a band I could see at $10-15 at most punk venues, I can't lie.
