I'll begin with a classic, from the days of early Ska. This was a big hit, in the early 60's. And it's still super fun!

Once upon a time, I was in a forgettable grocery store in NW Ohio, and this song came on the muzak system. I was boppin' down the aisle singing along. I know they thought I was nuts.

Circa 1991: my uncle came to live with us. He was a music lover like me. We were discussing great albums and he was in shock that I had never heard Catch a Fire by Bob Marley. I had only heard second wave ska in the background. He put it on. I instantly fell in love. Here's Concrete Jungle.

Ska and reggae have always been culturally, and politically charged full of the energy of protest, change, and making the world better for all. From the descendants of escaped slaves in Jamaica, to where we are today. Yell Fire!
