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. Track listing: Gals Panic - Gals Panic The Aggrolites - Dirty Reggae Spring Heeled Jack - East End Gangster (live) Hepcat - Earthquake and Fire Ruskabank - Hothead (live) Skavoovie & the Epitones - Riversion Reel Big Fish - The Fire The Uprights - 31st & Gillham Skatalites - Nimble Foot Ska The Invaders - Spy's Demise The Pietasters - Sheila (live) The Slackers - So This Is The Night (live on NPR) Let's Go Bowling - Spy Market Rancid w/ Stubborn All-Stars - I Wanna Riot The Specials - The Skinhead Symphony In Three Movements The Urge - Take Me Home

Here are some key things to know about it:Main Features:Focus: The show followed the cases of Sergeant Joe Friday and his partners, primarily in the Los Angeles Police Department. It depicted the real-life work of detectives, including the tedious investigation process, interviews, stakeouts, and occasional danger.Realism: Jack Webb, the show's creator and star, aimed for authenticity. Episodes were often based on real cases, with details changed to protect the innocent. The dialogue was direct and unvarnished, mimicking the way police officers actually spoke.Famous Intro: The show's opening sequence is iconic: the announcer's voice declaring "This is the city... Los Angeles... California..." followed by the signature "dun-dun-DUN" theme music.Impact:Pioneering Police Procedural: Dragnet is considered a pioneer of Alben für die Ewigkeit audiowest, Freddy Kappen, Stephan Kleiber, Dieter Kottnik Es gibt Alben, die sind etwas Besonderes.
