SKA – AUTENTIC

The Skatalites were the first, and only, Ska supergroup. During 1964 and 1965 they recorded more hits together than any other musical aggregation in Jamaica’s history. Don Drummond, Roland Alphonso and Tommy McCook remain as three of the legends of Jamaican music to this day.

the thirty.two top hits collection feature their years with the legend of Ska, Sir Coxsone Dodd, the Downbeat. Their collaboration produced hits for both the Skatalites themselves and singers such as The Wailers, Jackie Opel and a host of others.

Here are the hits that fueled their legendary status in Ska circles and have made them favorites the world over more than thirty years later. You can still see the Skatalites perform today but Foundation Ska brigs the picksof the past to life again. Fire Hot Ska!
