Long time no speak, Sham64andahalf! Just to say, there's a new young ska band called Too Spicy Ska, mix punk/ska, remind me a bit of the Ruts but more on the ska side. Watch out for them!
@bassboy17290 the reason is because they were a top band in the early 80s who were brave enough to mix punk and reggae when it was a time of a lot of unrest between black and white.They bridged a big gap with the help of misty in roots in very touchy times.Me and my mates punx and skins luved what they stood for .Also they were fukin tops hope this helps u understand what they were all about.
@circleoffools I wish it happened but being French and therefore familiar with French TV, I doubt it. I wouldn't even bet that they still have the tapes.

I always wondered what the rest of the 80's would have done for The Ruts was Malcom to have survived.

Dat Bass
You could try some ATV; Love Lies Limp, the image has cracked, etc, and you should definitely try the Slits
type in 'zion train' and listen to 'love revolutionary', enjoy................
I'd add something by the SLF, from "Go for it".
anyone got zion train dance version of babylons burnin ?
anyone got any more of this gig ?
please post it
poor soundquality but MUST put to favourites
the song at the end sounds like" you're just a.." from the crack
Do you mean "Johhny Was" ?
are you sereous? ok, i admit, i like hanah montana but why would you watch a video by the ruts if you dont even know who they are?
