When Reggae had already been established in the UK
during the 1970's, there was kind of a "Ska
Revival" during the 1980's. The music,
however, was as much related to Reggae Music as it
was to Ska.
It was called the Two Tone revolution and you
could say, that in a way these were "Roots
Skinheads" who knew their history and were
very much against racism.
You see: Skinheads and Ska are related, and not
just since the 1980's. In fact, both terms come
directly out of Jamaica and it has been in use
there since the 1960's.
In this video, however, we'll meet one of the
leading Two Tone bands in one of their most
popular tunes. Enjoy!
