    I was introduced to Ska by Trevor Harriot when I was 16 years old and he was a year older. We were British Steel apprentices together in 1966 in a Rolling Mill in Brierley Hill now part of the West Midlands. He had been sponsored by British Steel to come alone and work in England for 5 years to become a qualified engineer. I lost track of him some time about 1970. If you read this Trevor remember some good times as Mods on our scooters.

    Part 2 of the documentary This Is Ska (1964)
    First up is Eric "Monty" Morris singing Sammy Dead-O. (On the original 7" single on Kentone in 1964 it was labeled Sammy Dead) Morris is a famous singer in Jamaica with over 100 singles, mostly in the ska and rock steady eras, but with a few reggae songs also. Among his most famous songs are Humpty Dumpty (1961) No. 1 (1964) Penny Reel (1964) Say What You're Saying (1968) and My Lonely Days (1968)
    Next up is a man who needs no introduction for most of you. Jimmy Cliff is famous the world over, mostly for his leading role in the best Jamaican film ever, Perry Henzell's The Harder They Come. His performance in that film is legendary. Cliff excelled as a singer in the ska and reggae years, but seems to have only a handful of rock steady singles. Here he is singing One-Eyed Jacks, a 7" he cut for Beverley's label in 1963.
    Another VERY famous figure follows Cliff---Prince Buster. Along with Coxsone Dodd and Duke Reid, Prince Buster was the main figure producing records as the 1950's came to a close in Jamaica. He really hit his stride in the ska era, when he produced and sang on numerous hit records. No let up in the rock steady era, either. He enjoyed tremendous success there also. But in the reggae years, like Dodd and Reid, Prince Buster did not dominate, although he continued to produce some fine records for singers like John Holt, Alton Ellis and Dennis Brown. Here he is singing Wash Wash, a song he recorded in 1962.
    And last in this segment is the group I posted a few days ago, Toots and the Maytals. Treat Me Bad was a 7" single in 1964.. No need to repeat my comments, the music speaks for itself.

      Hello @@racketman2u,
      Cecil Bustamente Campbell (24 May 1938 - 8 September 2016), known professionally as Prince Buster, was a Jamaican singer-songwriter and producer. The records he released in the 1960s influenced and shaped the course of Jamaican contemporary music and created a legacy of work that would be drawn upon later by reggae and ska artists...

    Don Letts said that Jamaican ska was originally optimistic/joyful music in keeping with the mood of the immediate post-independence era. You can see that in the crowd in the video. But he also said that as time went on the mood became more serious and militant, because people became disillusioned that independence wasn't "delivering the goods". By 1965/66 ska was changing accordingly as it evolved into the "rude boy music" which led to the emergence of rocksteady and eventually reggae. This song from 1966 sums up the change in mood. ua-cam.com/video/VB19qQ_ungg/v-deo.html

    Those tight pants on females were called Pedal Pushers....a tight skirt was called a Hobble....a man in sun-glasses was admired as a Soft Boy.....the original words to Eric 'Monty' Morris' song was "..but a grudgeful Nayga grudgeful mek dem kill him..." etc.. Keith Lyn and those early performers can be seen with Byron Lee (guitar)..
    The dance and words were co-ordinated to be exclusively "Jamaica's Ska", it was not by chance; and credit must go to social scientist Edward Seaga who (started researching from 1952) heard Ska in Western Kingston, and took Byron Lee and Carlos Malcolm to bring it to Jamaica's notice, and project it to the world (successfully). Seaga went on to install nearly 100 institutions vital for Jamaica's progress and real independence, and became Prime Minister in 1980-89, when he revived the economy (I was there).
    We now have a premium product which grows by itself, but needs someone intrinsically brilliant to harness/marshal its potential to benefit THOUSANDS of Jamaican performers who put in great effort, but need a good day job to survive.
