I love the English Beat I saw them right after they came out with they're first album.They really had you dance all night long,Ranking Rodger was a great cool guy.I just love that ska reggae sound.
such a gr8 band. true bout the bass player! he had the nickname "Shuffle" cos he'd do that for the whole show =) like he was about to fall down but he never did. plus the drummer, Everett Morton, is simply a genius. everyone in that band was a star. and together they put on one of the best live shows i've ever seen.

Met this man on a street in T.O>(Toronto,Ontario).
Did not see that concert but remember how tall he was compared to me at the time.
He was also with a tall blond woman,I said to Roger ...love you-love the music keep it up.
He said thank you graciously we both smiled and wished each other well.
Great guy..great moment for me.
Thank you for this posting.

One of my favorite English Beat's songs!
First listened to them in 1984 on LP and I still love them.
