I was born in1964 by the time I was 4 my next door would have a party every Saturday night black,white and Asian dancing ska all night mum and dad would dance in the garden next to the wall I'm still dancing too 2023 thank you Jamaica for your bringing people together from all over the world my mother's white English dad from Egypt ❤🕺💃
It warms my heart to see and go back to simpler time when you and you lady could go out even walking really dance and walk back home in safety without fear of death or bodily harm.
I am from Trinidad but now live in England.My cousin studied in Jamaica in the 60s and came back to Trinidad with a suitcase of Ska music so I knew all the older tunes,he also showed us how to dance the SKA.I came to England on a big ship called the Begona,when they played the Ska music on the ship I danced it with many girls, but when I asked the Jamaican girls to dance they told me they couldn't dance it.I did have a nice time with one Jamaican girl though,she told me they were country girls and they shy.
im not Jamaican just old skool mod but love the old ska sounds here keep it alive all long road i know get this young lot to listen too i say SKA rules
As much as we might miss the 'old days', those memories , when one still has them, are sometimes magical..., at least for some of us, and I would hope for yourself...
@@universallanguage59oh yes great memories from those times , brilliant music , absolutely brilliant clubs , we were young and having a wonderful time , dancing , looking good oh great times 😎
It was the best days in Jamaica history. No shooting and killing in those days. Not even excessive drinking of alcohol, nor smoking. We were controlled by our parents.
Bèautiful young people dressed bèautifull respectful eñjoyinģ them selves those were the days oh how ĺ wish I could turn back the clòck The young so cool sings beautiful
Ska music the best.those were the day u can have good fun swings your hands and rock your body and if your hands it some one beside you they won't shoot you.
+colin berresford it isn't about age ...its about how passionate you are about ska ... I have to say I discovered ska late in life but I am definitely converted!
Many younger generation love ska, lots got it from listening to parents relatives PartiesPlaying Ska which brings the love of it to them once you have it it’s there forever, unlike some genre of music.
THE SKA MUSIC OF YOUNG JAMAICA BEFOR ROCKSTEADY , JAMAICA Music SPREAD ACROSS THE WORLD LIKE WILDFIRE AND INFLUENCE MANY OTHER MUSIC CULTURE'S THE BLACKSTONES
Part 3 of the documentary This Is Ska (1964) Toots and the Maytals are back to lead things off, but somehow Toots has been lost. So just the Maytals, Raleigh Gordon and Jerry McCarthy, are singing. She Will Never Let You Down was released as a single in 1965. Appearing second are the Charmers, Lloyd Tyrell, better known as Lloyd Charmers and Roy Willis. Charmers is quite famous as a keyboard player in the reggae era as well as a singer and producer. As the Charmers they cut over 50 songs in mostly the ska years. I don't think So Marie was released as a single. . Third up is a much loved singer, Stranger Cole, who excelled in all three--ska, rock steady and reggae. He cut several hundred songs, both solo and with with other wonderful singers such as Gladdy (Gladstone Anderson), Hortense Ellis, Ken Booth, and Patsy (Patsy Todd) Rough 'N' Tough was a single from 1963. And last on the bandstand are Roy (Panton) and Yvonne (Adams) Panton sang solo on some ska era songs but he is best known teaming up with other female singers such as Annette, Millie, Patsy and Yvonne. Two Roads Before Me (labeled Two Roads Before Us on the 7") was issued in 1964. One part to go in this excellent film. Plenty of performances, not much talking---just what I like.
much respect to you! ...most folks don't know Ska from "skedaddle"... "you can puff, huff and puff, till u bust; it shall be rough, (ruff and tuff) on your side..."
Joseph LoGiurato thanks, mate. Appreciate your kind words. If you think most folks don't know much about ska, you should see what they know about rock steady. Even less. At least lots of kids were exposed to ska through the 2 Tone ska revival in England in the 80's
So true... it's kinda sad how many ugly white "Reggae" fans can get it wrong... ("Phyllis Dillon? Alton and Hortense Ellis? Justin Hinds? Byron Lee and the Dragon-Who a dem now"? Lol)
I still love the 2tone stuff with all my heart, but thank goodness this music has finally gone out of style again; SKA is for us skinheads and other old folks... it hurt my heart to see some young people wearing a "Ska" costume and doing a weird punk rock pogo dance to it... this shit is gangsta, not cutesy!
SKA SKA SKA OH YEAASSSSHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is quality music comparing now,these younger generation in Jamaica 🇯🇲. Cannot produce nothing like this, they haveto copy everything from this music. Because they are not creative at all, same old beats,and words.
There's an excellent book called "Bass Culture" by a guy called Lloyd Bradley. It's about the history of Jamaican music. Bradley isn't too keen on modern dancehall music. He points out that in all the previous transitions in Jamaican music - from ska to rocksteady to early reggae to roots reggae - there was continuity. There was also melody and musicianship.

What a spurious comment.
Love the maytalls voice, I love these bands, smartly dressed, must have been very special, thanks for sharing..❤️💛💚❤️💛💚❤️💛💚❤️💛💚
Yes indeed! Glad to see that the time and the 'scene' hasn't been lost...
I love this old Jamaican music 💯💞💕💘
Really wonderful memories of the ska era.Thanks for sharing.
We were still under control by the British so we knew how to behave ourselves, after independence things changed
And all those kids are now as old as me... Going on 70 and gettin' grey!
But I bet they still love this..
+Colin Berresford Very healthy you must all be!!!

Colin Berresford they are in their 70s if they are still with us.
Ska is too good to die!
Love ska grew up with this music❤
HOW CAN ANYTHING IN LIFE TOP DANCING TO ORIGINAL SKA IN THE ERLY HOURS, I HAVNT FOUND IT YET.
dont worry nor me too rob the Mod
This was when people were having fun dance
Back to the days of great music. The Jamaican SKA is number one..
She will never let you down the very best off Ska from Toots and the Maytals top Rower.
when Jamaica was “ Out Of Many, One People “ . I weep at what we’ve become 😢😢😢😢
Legend never dies
Yes indeed, your statement, even if it has been stated many times, bears repeating here, methinks...strong positive memories are steadfast...
This is the ska days I remembered when this song came out, shake a legs 🦵 in those days. These kind of music can never, never died at all.
Great trombone solo by Vern Muller during "Rough And Tough" by Stranger!
Boss tune! He must be also Playing on Oh Marie!
Yes indeed! This whole video is certainly a great trip down 'memory lane', for some of us, eh? Always loved those Maytals harmonies...
My cousin love this!! He remembers them and the place too
We got high on music!
great stuff, a historical MUST HAVE!! very rare and so precious in any way!
Roy And Yvonne to die for her voice is fantastic as is Roy's if you don't like this you don't like life dance and be Skatified.
Proud to be Jamaican!
Every generation had a life of its own but all things will come to the end nothing is forever
If I win a time machine ticket this is the momento I'll go

Jamaican baby boomers respect
Only the ones who were 18 or below at the time would have been baby boomers.
I like the female singer , she had a cute voice. Who was she?

What is the song right at the beginning?
Is that a young Yvonne Elliman ?
well this is young innocent music the way how dance hall. music today is they should ban it it's disgusting
