    9.The Fight- Dandy
    and 10.The Toughest- Vietnam All Stars for some really rare treats
    and I am going to take a little license- not really a fan of Sugar 'n' Dandy, but the tune I stuck in at 11 is top-shelf JA R&B

    Good stuff- give it a listen!
  • hmmm, this is going to be yet another scorcher...
    I have a few suggestions which I hope won't make yhis too similar to a Trojan Box set...
    The Tartans: What can I say
    Desmond Dekker: Beautyful and Dangerous
    Laurel Aitken: Stop the War in Vietnam
    Prince Buster: Texas Hold up (Or Sad Song)
    Alton Ellis: Cry not for Me
    The Ethiopians: Hong Kong Flu (or Engine 54)

    hmmm I think I'm making my list a little too long, but any of these songs would be great to see in the second CD...

    Keep up the great work Dave!

  • Hey Mister- glad you liked the first one and thanks for the contribution to the second. Any one of those songs would be a killer choice for a Rocksteady/Reggae set (which I do a lot of), But since we are keeping this SKA, and have to be purists about it...tell you what I am going to do (because some of the artists here need to be on this eh?)
    1.A Day Will Come- Clarendonians
    2.Something You've got - Alton Ellis
    3.I want Justice- Delroy "little Del boy" Wilson (my second favorite after Love Abiding)
    4.Penny Reel- Eric "Monty" Morris
    5.Housewives Choice- Derrick and Patsy
    6.Rude Rude Rudie- Prince Buster
    7.King of Kings- Jimmy Cliff
    8.Owen and Leon- The Fit Is On Me
    9.The Fight- Dandy
    10.The Toughest- Vietnam All Stars
    11.Blues Got A Hold Of Me- Sugar 'N' Dandy
    12.Jeserene- Desmond Dekker
    13.Freedom Train- the Skatalites and Laurel Aitken
    14.Red Dress- Prince Buster (god this song is sooo good)
    15.Something You've Got- Alton Ellis
    16.I'm gonna take over now- Ethiopians

    Substitutions hopefully fit the bill, as I would classify these as such:
    The Tartans: What can I say (Rocksteady)
    Desmond Dekker: Beautyful and Dangerous (Rocksteady)
    Laurel Aitken: Stop the War in Vietnam (Skinhead Reggae)
    Prince Buster: Texas Hold up (Or Sad Song) (here is a funny twist- I don't have either of these!!!)
    Alton Ellis: Cry not for Me (Early Reggae)
    The Ethiopians: Hong Kong Flu (or Engine 54) (Early Reggae)

    Hope that is OK- gotta keep it pure here, but any one of these songs would easily make another show as they are all top-shelf

    See guys, I can be nice about it :) OK- 4 more to go- get off your duff's and finish this off, my ratings are dropping and that is not cool :(

    Good stuff- give it a listen!
  • Ok... I'll have to agree with your corrections...
    As to the two Prince Buster sings the "Texas Hold Up" is in his "Fabulous Greatest Hits".
    And the "Sad song" is in an album he did with Baba Brooks called "Hard Man Fe' Dead"... If you get a chance to check them out let me know...

  • I am looking right now mate- looking right now. DOn't like to be caught without something good
