		I Love Jamaica Ska

		VIDEO CLIP: Ska authentic		Ska Gravitating from Jamaican artists such as Prince Buster, the revival of British Ska emanated from the streets of Coventry with a fusion of soul, reggae, and punk. The ska revival dominated the charts with bands such as The Selecter and The Beat. The Specials brought together black and white in their music that rebelled against society of the late 1970's. Hits such as Ghost Town (Two Tone Records 1981) and Too Much Too Young epitomised the height of the Ska revival in the early 1980s.
