Tribute To Tommy: The Best Of Tommy McCook And The Skatalites

Tommy McCook is one of the giants of ska music. His tenor sax solos propelled the Skatalites to worldwide acclaim and made ska an international phenomenon. McCook (and Roland Alphonso -- the other tenor ska giant), created some of the most exciting music heard anywhere -- a ska meltdown of the highest degree! This collection brings together Tommy's greatest and most-requested recordings -- a stunning tour de force album. Blistering solos over raging ska vamps, top Studio One hits ("Exodus," "Freedom Sounds," "Peanut Vendor"), here are 18 top ska tracks hits -- most never before issued on CD -- for your dancing and listening pleasure. This is the original ska. Produced by the legendary father of ska, Clement Dodd of Studio One.
