| | Soca Gold 2000 CD
To the untrained ear, soca tunes can quickly meld into each other, the incessant percussion and horns jumbling into one long party song. It takes high quality bands to pull out the personality and individual spirit inherent in a good soca tune. Soca Gold 2000 has done just that, assembling the best soca records of the year for fans of the contagious sounds of carnival. Packed with 18 high-energy tracks, this collection boasts standouts such as Lima Calbio's "Fittest Shall Survive," dedicated to "all the lazy body man dem," Ronnie Macintosh's "You Ain't Going," full of wry humor, and "Yeah Yeah," a rare relaxed groove by Kevy Kev. In the words of featured soca singer Miss TC, Soca Gold 2000 is "hot like hellfire." ~ Rosalind Cummings-Yeates

Soca Gold 2000 album
 $18.05 
Growing up among Afro-Americans in Berkeley, CA, Greek-American Johnny Otis (born John Veliotes) always identified strongly with people of color. Before he had attained the age of 20 he was gigging with black jazz bands throughout the Southwest, and eventually organized an ensemble deliberately patterned after Count Basie's orchestra. This highly charged album of historical musical artifacts documents the very beginning of Johnny Otis' recording career. With one apparently unobtainable exception, the Classics Blues & Rhythm Series has assembled all of Otis' Excelsior recordings, made in Los Angeles between 1945 and 1947. This provides background and context for his more well-known Savoy material, and indeed for ...

| | J J Jackson But It's Alright CD (1967)
Soca Gold 2000 songs
$9.95 
Soul belter J.J. Jackson is best known for his 1967 smash, "But It's Alright," but he has some fine singles and a couple of excellent albums as well, and 1967's But It's Alright on the Calla label is one of them. Kicking off with the infectious title track, the record alternates between flat-out rockers like "I Dig Girls," "Come See Me (I'm Your Man)" (which was written by Jackson, covered by the Pretty Things, and then reclaimed powerfully here), and "Boogaloo Baby," midtempo groovers like "You've Got Me Dizzy" and "The Stones That I Throw," and ballads like "Try Me" and a righteous "A Change Is Gonna Come." Jackson's live-wire voice and boundless energy put ...

| | Toasters One More Bullet CD (2007)
Soca Gold 2000 CD music
$12.55
To commemorate their 25th anniversary, the long-running New York City-based ska ensemble the Toasters issued ONE MORE BULLET in 2007. Fronted by British vocalist Rob "Bucket" Hingley, the group admirably leaves stylistic additives like "punk" and "metal" out of the equation, offering instead a set of straight-up horn-laden ska, as exemplified by energetic tracks such as "You're Gonna Pay" and "Step Up." This is vintage rudeness for the new millennium.
The Toasters, are "Ska Pioneers" (Billboard magazine) and boldly go where no ska band has gone before. Having been compared to the Ramones, due to their longevity and adherence to core principles, the Toasters are held to be one of most influential ska bands out there. Their lean, mean ska machine has galvanized audiences and musicians alike with their embrace of the Jamaica-born pop music style that overwhelmed England in the 1960's, migrated to America in the early 1980s, and went global in the 1990s. The hallmark Toasters sound sits at the nexus of Reggae, Jazz, Punk and Soul and is the musical equivalent of a brass knuckle-duster.Formed in New York City by British guitarist/frontman Rob "Bucket" Hingley in 1981, the Toasters exploded onto the Lower East Side scene. Cutting their teeth with a residency at legendary clubs like CBGB and Danceteria, the band has defied gravity and industry skeptics alike by staying true to their original 2-Tone ska roots, whilst logging over 4000 globe-trotting live appearances.Longtime fans and critics agree, the current "International All-Stars" posse (featuring members of some of the world's greatest ska bands) is one of the most formidable in The Toasters' long and chequered history. Along with the irrepressible Bucket on lead vocals and guitar, The Beat's Andy Pearson is featured on bass. Expect to see Neil Johnson (Planet Smashers) and Tommy Quartulli on saxophone (The Allstonians), Greg Robinson (Mephiskapheles) on trombone and Jesse Hayes (Westbound Train) on drums. Special appearances by Arjen Bijleveld (Rotterdam Ska-Jazz Foundation) and Buford O'Sullivan (Easy Star All-Stars) are also to be expected in 2009. Legendary keyboardist Dave Barry rounds out the posse.As the founder of Megalith Records (and former boss of the legendary Moon Ska Records, the most influential ska label of the 1990s) the Toasters' leader, Rob "Bucket" Hingley ...
