    Thank you. To be quite honest, I’ve had a roommate once who loved reggae and ska, and even though I don’t know the names of the songs nor the artists, I kinda like the entire vibe of it. Not that I’d want to listen to it all day though, but a bit of it in a day’s listening makes my day a bit brighter, if that even makes sense.

    I might have been guilty of wrongfully associating ska with reggae though, and to be fair, I couldn’t even distinguish one from the other.

      The best way I can describe it is that reggae is a walking beat, rocksteady is a jogging beat, and ska is a running beat.

      (I like pineapple on pizza and ska)

        Whoa! Dude, lol! Now I kinda want to hear reggae sped up to a ska-like BPM, and ska slowed down to a relaxing reggae-like BPM.

              One of my favourite bands back in the day. They had an amazing evolution from a generic ska band to a prog type act over their fifteen year odd career.
