Ska's the limit

from Rock Star Journalist · host Nick Spacek

Summer's winding down, and it's starting cool off here in Lawrence. School started last week, and Labor Day is but a couple weeks away. So, for one last gasp of summer music, I've put together a little bit of ska that ought to help you make it through the week. As the heat starts to die down and you realize you're looking at a long spell of cold weather, spice up your day with this batch of tunes. If nothing else, you're set with some great driving music. The live tracks from the Pietasters and Spring Heeled Jack come courtesy of Boston Ska from when they used to have mp3s. That was several years back, but I managed to hold onto these through three different computers, and they're well worth the effort. Hope you enjoy.
