Gotta love Ska which I keep under Reggae along with Rock Steady and Calypso.
I even include 2-tone Ska (British Beat) under Reggae which is part of World category.
Just googled and listened to LLoyd Clarke, who is classic early 60’s in dim sound and then Ska Bara
(Swedish Ska Jazz Band) who play an instrumental ska version which sounds pretty Ska to me. Both new to me.
I also listened to the classic Herbie Mann version, which was referenced as being sampled in some Ska versions?
Many many great vocal versions - Sam Cooke to Janis Joplin. I hadn’t listened to Sam or Janis with Big Brother in a while.
Young Sam Cooke with the Soul Stirrers was also great. Gospel, either Southern or Bluegrass, is another great genre.
Also came across Mungo Jerry’s “In the Summertime” again, which has a happy ska-like sound but is not Gershwin.
Happy listening. I think I can easily find 24 hours worth of Gershwin’s “Summertime” in my own collection,
but “Time Won’t Let Me”. Too much new to hear for the first time. A great tune like “summertime” is almost
like the first time every time.
Happy Trails. No need to bang yer head.
One of my other hobbies is remixing/editing music for personal use.
I’ve just made up a new 46 track playlist with tunes from the chemical brothers, leftfield, daft punk, underworld and the prodigy, listening to that right now. (Yeah i grew up in the 90’s

I like that kind of music when I run . Soft rock while I work , Metal in the weightroom , Techno when I ride my bike .
I prefer silence when I'm fishing .
Ska.
I was pleased to see recently that there’s a Ska revival happening in Melbourne.:
