Gogol | England | 10/14/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"No point going on about the history of skinheads its already been done by most of the previous reviewers so just on with the music.



Well for sheer volume of songs and quality both of the music and musicians this has got to be one of the best value box sets you can find. The comp mostly features the more upbeat ska style that made it so popular, much more danceable that the reggae style that was to come later and probably a little more accessible (granted many of the bands deliberately played in a style that would be more accessible to their target British audience) too many tracks here to point out one over the other this is however, a piece of history.



Well worth buying."
