Rotterdam Ska-Jazz Foundation : Sunwalk : CD
Release Date : July 6th, 2005
Lots of members means lots of instruments, which means lots of solos in songs! If you like big ska songs with very intricate melodies and harmonies as well as a wide range of sound, this band is for you. Don't worry about the language barrier, cause it doesn't exist! This is some of the best instrumental ska I have heard in a long time. This is the musicians friend ska band.
You must give this cd a try, you won't be disappointed, especially with songs like "Magyar Posta" and "Yardbird Suite" that boast very Eastern European traditional styes. But not all the songs are straight ska-jazz, be sure to turn up the heavy one drop sound of "Illegal Operations" and feel the walk of the stick bass vibrate your spine...This album is sure please all your ska senses...
