Since ska has finally become the big
thing it was supposed to be since the
days of the legendary Operation Ivy
back in 1989, it's nice to have some trueschool
skallers who acknowledge the
past and are influenced more by old
Bob Marley, Toots and The Maytels
and the Skatalites than all these bandwagon,
soon to be flash-in-the-pans
worrying about what they got. It's what
See Spot has that matters, proving once
again that love makes the ska go round.
