Grab Bag

A mixed bag here of things I didn't think deserved their own post with some other things I think are common enough that most of you already have them. There's some traditional, Two Tone sounds, and 3rd wave. Lots of good rare stuff and some complete crap. I'm not saying which is which.

Double Barrel Ska Explosion - The London International Ska Festival II (1989)

 I finally procured myself a copy of this Unicorn Records set. The vinyls are immaculate but I just couldn't get a good rip. I was hoping to have this posted in time for the 2013 LISF but that didn't happen.

I pretty much forgot about it and moved on to better things - but then our Swedish correspondent Rikard sent an amazing array of rare ska, and this was included in that collection. As it seems my sub-par rips were no fault of my own. This is how the record sounds.

This is the version ripped by Rikard. The sound quality ain't great but you know most of these songs and you will sing along..

Mark Foggo - Taking Things Too Far 7" (1985)

Rare 7" from Mark Foggo. Neither of these songs are on any of his albums. They're not ska but if you're a Foggo fan you're going to appreciate them nonetheless.

A - Taking Things Too Far
B - Oops, I Did it Again (NO, NOT the Britney Spears song. This was recorded in '85)

DOWNLOAD

(actually...oops, I did it again. I gave some wrong info on this one. the song "Taking Things Too Far" is on the album "Weapons and Guitars".
I was wrong and I apologize. I will try not to let it happen again.)
