Lisa from the DONUTS WAS KEY. I AM CURENNLY TRANSFERRING ALL TAPES TO DIGITAL<br /><br />TO ME THE REAL SKA MOVEMNT. TOOK OF WITH THE LINEUP,<br />DAVID SAX]<br />LISA VOCALS<br />GREGG DRUMS <br />MUNROE MONROE LEAD GUITARIST AND AT FIRST MAIN SONG WRITER.<br />SCOTT BASS/KEYBOARDS/DUB<br />IVAN THE BASS PLAYER ALLOWING SCOTT TO MOVE TO organ keys.<br /><br />Unfortunately Betsy never under stood that we where the SMART PEOPLE EEP ALIVE WITH OUR STYLES. WE OWNED CERTAIN SONGS NO ONW MATCH.<br /><br />MUNROE IS MY MENTOR INTO SKA/MOD AND I MISS HIM. WHAT A CHARACTER. THE NAME CAME SBOUT FOE SEVARAL REASONS. I LOVED DOING THE stones “I’m Free, NIGHT TRAIN OYR EXPLOSIVE CLOSER, “COME SEE ABOT ME’ the supremes , The simple old tune Solomon Gundy. We had fun. That’s SKA. it’s not dumb it’s a sense of freedom allowing us to explore rhythms. Betsy is not the right person to interview why we stared. <br /><br />Busurfnerdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18034087722720436777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1134969481939975509.post-76933811529159959352011-12-27T00:17:10.228-05:002011-12-27T00:17:10.228-05:00I wish I had the cassette as well.

I had their second single, but lost it years ago. thank you for uploading it! There was another great LA Ska band around the same time, called The Skanksters. They only had a demo cassette, that they sold at shows. I wish I still had it! Len in LA.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
