Rico, The Specials - Jungle Music [Official HD Remastered Video] 

This song is a two tone ska isn't it? I just start to explore ska for about 3 week's ago and still hard to know the difference between ska and reggae

it was written by rico rodriquez, trombonist in the specials, whom he joined after a long career in jamaica and uk making classic tunes

I believe that it was borrowed from Jools Holland...

One love , lovely to read this

Noel's Café, a West Indian café on Station St West in Foleshill Coventry. It was just down the road from the legendary live music venue, The General Wolfe.

@@julieadams1044 The Heath Hotel was my local, despite the fact that the Wolfe was marginally nearer to walk. The Specials under the name of the Automatics (or possibly the Hybrids) played their debut gig in the Rainbow Lounge at the Heath in October 1977, supporting, amongst others, Squad, fronted by Terry Hall. Jerry Dammers had to play his keyboards off the stage with his back to the audience because there wasn’t enough room. I could have been in the bar that night, oblivious to the beginning of a new era…

He was taught young to play the trombone by his slightly older schoolmate Don Drummond at the Alpha Boys School... But no, he had not play with the Skatalites. His debut in Jamaica was with guitarist Ernest Ranglin and pianist Théo Beckford!

@@CasimirLeYeti Good Day, I got a Don Drummond album at a Skatellites show in NYC over 30yrs ago. I bought many albums that night. My favorite is a Wailers album with Bob on the cover, in a suit and short haircut. I got to go back stage and get my Skatellites albums autographed by Lloyd and Tommy. Still have them, still play them . SKAMUSIC ✌️
