Prince Buster - Whine and grine (live at TOTP)

[dagsbollox]

who gives a fuck about the crowd ,its the music that counts,  top of the pops says it all , what a bunch of pans people haha !!! sad !

[Writeowl]

True about the crowd . . . in 1979 they'd have been going ballistic.

[g10nk]

Can't believe this legend is still around, love it!

[TheFeckineejit]

great to hear the Prince. what a legend. up there with count prince miller, jackie edwards (rip), and jimmy james.

[ThePrinceDhani]

Why didn't I hear this in 1998. How well did it do in the charts? Why am I only hearing about Prince Buster now? I feel neglected.

[stiqman]

I think the guy carrying the camera cable at 0:36 is overcome by the music

[thackerb67]

no prince buster=

no specials,selecter,madness,beat­, and so on

and we alll know the influence of 70'S two tone ever since and still alive today

PRINCE BUSTER=THE MOST IMPORTANT ARTIST EVER...PROBABLY!!

[eveningoutake]

The cable guy sure looks funny but when you think about it he seems to be the only one who's cottoning on to what the songs about

[TheRickynow]

@eveningoutake Yes! That's right!

[vandrossfan]

I just love Ska I grew up to the likes of Prince Buster,Laurel Aikin to name a few and was in my element in1979 when Ska made a modern revival with the Two Tone label you cannot compare the two styles as both are for different generations but the revival must be thanked as all the original performers have been given the chance to entertain again off tunes they have had covered. I've seen artist I know would never have come to England if it wasn'n for the revival long live Ska .

[GwaiiEagle1]

It;s pretty kinky, really. The guy is talking 'bout sex from both the guys or girls perspective 'Whine or Grind'. One of the original lines is "give it to her fast and you can't go wrong."

Mean while there is a moshpit of teenyboppers in front.

[bladesmark1]

Prince Buster = the king of ska,what a legend

[pimlico24]

everlasting Prince!

[youthgoes]

The Mighty Prince Buster! I saw him in Croydon in November of 2007. At over 70 years old, he is STILL the inventor of Ska! Cheers from PA, USA!

[rael1999]

[madmax8903]

Good to see the Prince looking so good. Just goes to show that when you're cool, you're cool 'til you drop. Was that Asafa Powell playing trumpet at 2:22?

[benj8706]

is this a sort of cover of the beats "stand down margret"

[Schmidthorst69]

THIS IS THE ORIGINAL ARTIST, YOU FOOL!!! :)

"Whine & grine" was originally done in the 1960s by one and only Prince Buster and, was covered by The Beat in the 80s and was recorded new in the end of the 90s for a Levi's commercial!

[benj8706]

god man, i thought this was the original until i saw that the date it was released was 1998? but now i know he just re-did it for this advert

[hulmeloony]

@benj8706 prince buster is one of the origianal ska players from kingston jamacia from the 1960's,the song whine or grine is a 1960's tune by prince buster and the beat cover prince buster songs not the other way round

[mebrotten]

It's killing me! Don't these people know who's standing in front of them? There dancing so fucking tame- it's lame-

[tiptopsound]

people are idiots

[scudder91]

@mebrotten all dancers on TOTP are specially selected from a specific talent agency for bored indifferent dancing :-)

[daroyalgeneral]

@mebrotten ..........you are so right.

[WolfxShadow4]

@mebrotten look how white they are lol

[GwaiiEagle1]

Whether you Whine or Grind....

give it to her hard and you can't go wrong...

[Sknkstar]

[ekhornbeck127]

Jeff, may i thank you for sharing that with us good sir, while i pass on my condolences for having to deal with morons who have too much time on thier hands to talk about all those insignifican't issues that have been posted here!

i'm gunna go find althea and donna :-)

[clanccy]

Love it...in my favourites :-)

[oliverjoel66]

friends whats going on is this a fashion or "are you in" forum? you talk and talk using terms and jargot of "rude boys".fuck who cares! the only important thing is we have had the gift of living this life to appreciate the sounds of all this ska musicians and this is what it matters ! i dont care if you are black or white rich or poor chinese or african fuck . this is the real sense of being Rude. being rude against all the wrong ideas stereotypes and fashions imposed by OURSELVES !!!!!!

[khalien]

i remember this on top of the pops.. whole fam was watching it... uncles wer there playing the bass n keyboard... lol... only young, i was well excited lol

[xwsftassell]

I never get star struck but I got such an almighty shock when I bumped into him outside Morleys in Brixton a few years ago. Also Buster must have been in his late sixties/early seventies then but he looked to be about 28 years old!!! What's your secret, Prince?

[Schmidthorst69]

I suppose that's the power of Bluebeat! ;-)

[koookeee]

Geez, another sad example of how TOTP just kills even the best song... I hate this show!

[tuktukskagal]

this man is a gentleman. absolutely love him. nuff respect buster.

[tuktukskagal]

wet dream was by max romeo. it is noy a buster song. i used to drive people mad with this track, playing it all the time and dancing with everyone. i have gaz to thank for meeting one of my fave singers. a good man and very interesting. he looks fantastic. thanks gaz from the trojans
