The
Skatalites
This Jamaican
band was created in the sixteenth century. The Skatalites (composed by nine
members in the beginning) created the “ska”, the predecessor music’s style o f
rocksteady and reggae. There were influenced by the jazz’s musicians from
Jamaica and there were also influenced by Africans sounds and the boogie woogie,
come from USA.
I like this
band because it sounds good.
In general, its music is only instrumental, there isn’t singing and I like it very much because you can interpret the song from your feelings and sensations and not with your reason or your mind, you aren’t limited by the words, you are free..chachachaaaaaan.
And I also love rocksteady and especially reggae music, so there’s no way I couldn’t no like ska, because from it, this two styles appeared.

One of my
favorite song –I have to say that I’m far from know all of them- is “Swing easy”,
a song from “Ball of fire” Album. I chose this one because it’s make me feel
alright, it relaxes me but in an active way.
