Get Up Edina – Desmond Dekker
Desmond Dekker Came First – Toots and the Maytals
Last night I went to the new Capital Music Hall to catch a ska show. Before I left, I spent close to an hour debating on whether to wear a suit or not. It was hot yesterday, and I would be spending hours in a poorly-ventilated club with hundreds of uncoordinated kids pathetically trying to mosh to the rocksteady beat. Common sense told me not to wear the suit. The weight of history convinced me otherwise.
At around the same time as I was making my decision, the voice behind my all-time favourite ska song passed away. He will be missed.
