  • Elvis Costello (like his immortal namesake) was all about vocals and you need a strong voice for this. This guy's got one. Good cover.

  • I saw these guys at this venue, Windows on the Cumberland; 2nd Ave. in Nashville..way back in 2003. They were rad.

  • you guys gotta get yourselfs to glasgow uk ,you would go down a storm,luvin this!

  • Robert, you sound AWESOME on bone man !

  • this is Elvis Costello song

  • reggae reggae style. It come from ska! oh.... now they play ska ^_^ sounds like punk/ska version of a regae tune, from a ska tune.

  • Great version...

  • I don't think an actual skin head would be dancing to ska! Great song.

  • Why not?

  • wtf are you talking about,do you know?

    cant believe you just said that?

  • This is Fun, this is Dancing, this is Ska. No Politics. Nice to see Skinheads and "other People" dancing. The real meaning of Ska

  • no politics??? really...

  • Yep, no Politics. Because Politics are Business. But Life is not. In Life Everything is One. Same Respect to every Beeing like to Yourself. The rest is Selfishness and lie. Haha. Greatings

  • Perhaps you should do a little research as to who Oliver Cromwell was and then fast forward to England's occupation of Belfast and Northern Ireland and how unemployment in the U.K. was at such a state that the only jobs available really were with the military. Elvis Costello caught a lot of slack for this song when he released it back in 78.

    Salutations!

  • Sweet!

  • Works well as a ska cover.

  • great cover of a great tune!

    I *need* to know who is playing bass/what gear he's using to great that great tone!

    Anyone?

  • Pretty sure its an Epiphone acoustic bass that Al was playing that night. Might have been an El Capitan... For the audio you are hearing it's going direct, but as I recall, he had an SWR head with whatever cabinet was right for the room... Sorry I can't be more specific.

  • Man!!! this fucking awesome! ska!!

  • wow excellent!

  • Fantastic party video. AKA Rudie seriously gets this groove out there. Have worked with the sax player "SMILEY" via Jon Wolfe and the Watermelons jam band. Search YouTube Jon Wolfe Halloween party clip. Jam on !!!  Rodney W. Nashville

  • Awesome. Awesome to the max.

  • Class cover

  • Hey, this is really cool!

  • This is dead cool. Doesn't discredit the original at all.

  • awesome ska cover of the king's classic. well done.

  • oh my god! why i didnt listen to it before?

  • well done!

  • Classic Costello song. Brilliant cover. Quite enjoyable.
