Damn that sounds like it was fucking awesome!!
I’m a huge fan of SKA music and this song is like one of the greatest.

@48thRonin I also got to talk with Dave Wakeling. I asked if the Beat girl had a name and he told me they called her Chantelle.

I used to really love the Ska bands---English Beat, the Selecter, the Specials especially! Also the Bodysnatchers and then the Belle Stars. I wore black and white all the time and really liked the checkerboard pattern. I still have loads of pins from that era.

I ultimately looked for anything produced by Langer & Winstanley.

@DeStijl I had the black suit that I wore. I met fishbone and I’ve seen mighty mighty boss tones way too Times now that I think about it. ?

But you’re David Wakeling story is definitely a winner, and thank you for sharing it.
