CD Reviews

Desmond and The Specials wear the crown

02/17/2001

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Two world-class Ska acts combine to create one of the best two-tone records of all time. Heavy on the reggae, this combo keeps the tradition alive.It's all too easy to get caught up in the beat and sing along. Desmond and the Aces teaming up with legendary band The Specials to create an incredible record. Reggae, Ska, Two-Tone; It's all here, and it's all good. 100% Rude, and 100% Good."
