Various - Skanking Skull Sampler

Review by Nathalie Daniels

Skanking Skull Sampler by Various is a must-have album for fans of ska and reggae music. The compilation features a diverse range of artists and genres, from classic ska to modern reggae, making it a perfect introduction to the genre. The album starts off strong with the upbeat and energetic "I Wanna Be Your Man" by The Skatalites, and continues to impress with tracks like "Rudy, A Message to You" by Dandy Livingstone and "54-46 Was My Number" by Toots and the Maytals. The album also includes some lesser-known gems, such as "African Blood" by Rico Rodriguez and "Dreader Than Dread" by Honeyboy Martin. Skanking Skull Sampler by Various is a great addition to any ska or reggae music collection and is sure to get listeners skanking and grooving along.
