This is the best 2nd Wave Ska (UK) compilation out there, period. It contains all the singles from the 2 Tone imprint (except Elvis Costello because of copyright constraints). Chances are, you've heard most of these on the radio at one time or another, back when radio was still ska-friendly (what happened?). Now if they'd just release a 1st Wave (Jamaica) and 3rd Wave (Orange County, California) true to this idea, we would all be in ska heaven. This is absolutely essential, and if you don't have it already, you need to buy it yesterday.

Stop Your Messin' Around.......2003-08-25

Like the Ska scene of the late 70s and early 80s this package is dominated by the Specials, and rightfully so. They had bounce, a great horn section and, like their contemporaries the Clash and the Sex Pistols they had brains in their heads. That's a wicked combo.

The first disc has the more earthy and rough-hewn records that were popular in nightclubs on both sides of the Atlantic; most of the great stuff from the first couple of Specials LPs, the Beat's excellent cover of Smokey Robinson's "Tears of A Clown"---too bad "Save It For Later" couldn't have been included--and a few tunes from The Selector help make it a classic side.

Despite some inspired selections, the second disc is too slick and decidedly less interesting. Again, the tunes from the Specials carry the day--"Ghost Town" may have been the best thing the Specials ever did--but the Apollinaires, Higsons, and the Friday Club sound like filler to me.

Overall, though, A CHECKERED PAST gives an accurate and lively insight into what I consider the Golden Age of British Ska. If nothing else, it's a great overview of the Specials under rated career.

A comprehensive primer for the unitiated.......1999-09-12

Now that ska has infiltrated modern alternative radio in every way shape and form, perhaps it is due time to return to the source. The 2 Tone Collection is a nearly flawless overview of Britain's initial ska craze of the eighties. From the archetypical white boy swagger of Madness ("The Prince" is included, though "One Step Beyond" is unfortunately absent), to the dynamic girl vocal bands like The Selector (wherein we can clearly hear where No Doubt's Gwen Stefani copped her vibrato inflected vocal style). And of course there is the timeless, "A Message To You Rudy" by The Specials. The Apollinaires, The Higsons, JB's Allstars, The Bodysnatchers, and on and on: all of the once vital ska acts are represented here. The recent ska revival (which has now seemingly morphed into the swing revival) owes a lot to these obscure acts of yesterday, who manage to combine elements of reggae, swing, latin, and motown into one rude stew. As The Bodysnatchers proclaim: "Let's Do Rock steady!"

Good collection of British Wave-2 Ska.......1998-09-16

This is an exiting collection of wave 2 Ska. There are some great incusions by The Selector, The Body Snatchers, and others. This is Ska as I remeber it in the early eighties. There are selections that lean a bit towards disco and could have been left out, but overall there are plenty of good Ska songs to select from and some greats Ska beats to dance to!

Album Description

This limited edition release of the original soundtrack recording to Invasion of the Body Snatchers is its world-premiere on CD. The 1978 remake of the classic 1950s sci-fi shocker was directed by Philip Kaufman (The Right Stuff / Quills) and starred Donald Sutherland and Leonard Nimoy.

Other cast included: Brooke Adams (The Dead Zone), Jeff Goldblum (The Fly / Independence Day) and Veronica Cartwright (Alien / Witches of Eastwick).

The original score was composed by Denny Zeitlin. Jazzy, innovative, experimental and unforgettable. This remains the only film score from the composer.

The booklet features extensive liner notes by film music journalist Paul Tonks, with reminiscences from the composer, while the album itself contains a 30 minute audio interview with Zeitlin.

INVASION of the FIlm Scoe buffs.......2004-11-20

I felt like I had been wishing for a CD release of this film score ever since I had first seen this film for the first time ever on DVD. The score is very 1970's cool. This may sound as if I find it "tacky" this is not the case. It is a chilling film score that gives this film a real heartbeat. Any film score buff should run to buy this cd not only for the score but the interviews also. They are very informative and entertaining. Denny Zeitlin's one and so far only film score is a triumph for films of this genre. This CD does not contain the Jerry Garcia banjo cues - Film buffs of this film know that the late Mr Garcia laid down a few cues that were used for the in film as a favor to the director. These are dubbed for the homeless banjo player within the film. This is a rare jewel in my film score CD collection. I highly recommend this CD. JackDVD@aol.com

Amazing CD.......2006-01-10

This CD is a truely amazing CD. Joe Welch - guitarist of the Body snatchers is quite amazing. His unique style of playing the guitar, with complex hammer and pulls will boggle the mind of any guitarist. The music on the CD is quite complex and energetic. Brett Cantrell's bass work is very powerful; complimenting the virtuoso stylings of Joe's guitarwork, and the solid percussion of Adam White. These boys have rocked the music scene in Indianapolis, and are waiting for you to take them home. You won't regret it.

Musical Highlights - Double Negative, Euphonium - These songs are beautiful and silly.

Lowpoint - Workmyself to Death - the song sounds like a labored form of the blues that doesn't quite fit with everything else

As an album, the CD has quite a uniform sound: the stylings of the album is setup with "Make Estatic", and the themes within this song carry throughout the CD, giving continuity to the work, terminating with the powerful reprise. A very good CD.
