Ska for the Skeptical

Ska for the Skeptical: "that being said, unlike Bollywood for the Skeptical, this mix will probably not make you twice as cool as you are now. lord knows there's a limited quotient of cool left on this good earth and much of it can be found keepin' it real in coltrane's tomb. this mix, however, will introduce the casual listener to some bands, singers, and songwriters whose coolness might have otherwise gone unnoticed due to the fact that ska has suffered huge setbacks in PR with today's tastefully discriminatory audience (the very same audience that did NOT blow up DOOP headquarters!). i hope that you'll discover something new about ska and enjoy what the music has to offer when it's not being torn up and bastardized by middle-school fucks who've never listened to an al green record (read: me in the 8th grade).
