Truly the Best of Tokyo Ska

"Tokyo Ska. Ska Para. TSPO. Whatever you want to call them, this band is an international institution that's put out more albums over the past 20 years than I can keep up with. The only problem with their studio albums is they can be really hit-or-miss. This best of collection from the past decade culls the excess fat and keeps the meat. The only minor complaint for me is it's missing the awesome cover of the "Love Theme" from the Godfather films that they did on their last labum, Wild peace.



If you've heard of the beand before, but have been wary of giving them a try due to the high import prices then this is the album for you. Ditto for any long-time fans who may have missed their last two or three albums as all the great songs from those albums and more are on this 2 disc collection.



Collects songs from the studio albums: Wild Peace, Answer, High Numbers, and Down Beat Alley."
