various artists - Scandal Ska
This lil' cash-in, released to capitalize on the release of Michael Caton-Jones's film "Scandal", ended up having an outsized effect on this here Ape. It's got one of the few Bob Marley songs I still want to listen to on it. The Jimmy Cliff and Desmond Dekker tracks are all time classics. While the whole Profumo Affair is almost completely unknown here in the States, any excuse to revisit the early, pre-Trojan, Island Records catalog is alright in my book.
