Episode 35 - Ska

If there is one podcast that most illustrates me abusing my powers as the podcast guy, it is this one. We talk about one of my favorite genres of music, the much misunderstood and oft-maligned style called Ska. Joined by genuine Ska veteran, Emeen Zarookian, and John Drake who did horn arrangements for his 7th grade swing band, we run down the history of the genre, its connections to Reggae, and its ongoing legacy in the world of music today. We also talk at length about the newly announced DLC this week from my favorite band, The Clash! Hope you enjoy it, and if you want to discuss, join me in the History of Rock forum to talk about your favorite Ska bands.
