Adinsxyz posted:He probably means Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da, which has some ska/reggae elements and is classified on wikipedia as ska, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ob-La-Di,_Ob-La-Da. You do know that Desmond Dekker has a song that pretty much says "Yes, the Beatles wrote this song about/for me" right?

DRD posted:I just saw The English Beat last night with Big D and my friend's band Infinite Detour. I was really impressed with the English Beat, they played a really long set and I wish I knew more of their stuff when I saw them. The Beat did own. I think it's just the lead singer and some guys now, though.

Josh Wow posted:New video of the Specials with almost all of their original members. It's killer so make sure you watch this first: Sick. They're all looking relatively good too. It's too bad Jerry Dammers isn't with them, though. Also a nice summary of this thread is everyone ignoring that video.
