Playlist for Ska’s the Limit on December 06, 2009

My recent one-off podcast for Music Is Our Occupation just dropped days ago, and it’s got me in a live ska kind of mood.  So here’s the playlist from last night, chock fulla ska and reggae, and every track recorded live.  If you missed it, you can still listen online for the next two weeks.

 

The idea was to recreate the tracklist of The Slackers seminal record, Redlight, using only tracks from my extensive live bootleg collection.  The result is called, Redlight Redid.  Please enjoy it.

 

Below, I’ve included links where you can get your hands on many of the live sets that these tracks were selected from- be it from live albums, or fan-recorded tapes.
