The Skatalites - Foundation Ska

Without The Skatalites, there would be no ska. And this 2-CD set collects 32 tracks (e.g. Occupation; Christine Keeler) from the legendary Studio One and Treasure Isle labels, everything from full-tilt ska to Latin beats to ballads, with guest vocals by Bob Marley, Jackie Opel and other luminaries. Includes rare photos and the first history of the band ever penned... so good it's ska-rie!
