My introduction to ska

"Way back when, I guess in 1996, this was the first ska music I ever heard. No, "No Doubt" didn't count



As with any compilation, you have a couple of duds in there, but over all this is a great cd and well worth the 2 or 3 dollars most people are asking for it now.



"Swallow Blood" and "Othello" are my personal favorite songs on here, but alot of people love "Too Stupid" or "William Shatner" or "Stuff". The girl who gave me the cd liked "When the Lights Go Down Low" best, so it really depends on the person I guess



Anyway, I highly reccomend this to anyone who is looking for an easy introduction to the genre, or even just anyone who wants some good music"

Eh, it's ok

"Tracks 4, 5, 6, and 10 are ok, but the album's nothing to write home about."

Very Good but not Great
