"The Rough Guide to Ska" focuses on the original style as it developed in Jamaica in the 1960s, a source and inspiration for the future reggae explosion.

One of the world's most vital and influential popular music forms, this album collects 20 cuts from those early days, a dozen of which are reissued for the first time in over 35 years.

Compiled by Blood and Fire's Steve Barrow, it features rare recordings of many of the classic ska acts including the Maytels, Don Drummond, Bunny and Skitter and the Skatalites.
