Trojan Presents: Mod Ska

Trojan Presents: Mod Ska

2012 two CD collection. The early sixties bore witness to a mass British youth movement that promptly acquired the universally acknowledged name: Mod. Between 1962 and 1966, Mod culture dominated both the fashion and music landscape, with the look and sound of young Jamaica playing a significant role in its development. Along with American R&B and Jazz, Ska music remained consistently high on the Mod agenda and it is this much loved genre that provides the focus of this collection. Annotated and supported by the widely respected Mod Culture site, `Trojan Presents Mod Ska' features 40 favorites of the original sixties scene, originally issued in the UK as such seminal record labels as Blue Beat, Island and Doctor Bird, 17 of which make their CD debut.
