The Mighty, Mighty Bosstones - The Impression That I Get (Recovery, 1998)

[redstar5583]

Holy crap... I remember seeing this onTV when I was three.... i just remembered

[redstar5583]

There should of been a horn playing a high G strait it during the intro. If you listen closely to the recording, you hear it in the background... other that this performance fucking rocks... but as usual, you can't even here the fucking bass :( MORE BASS

[PizzaBoxForum]

this was played on my birthday!!

[schnoodleyaface]

no fucking way music was funner then late 90's - early 00's

[roguescorch]

@Venator2015 There is no trumpet.....

[matgta3]

i HATE ska yet this band is my exception along with sublime and the specials.

[redstar5583]

@matgta3 it better be... haha lol how come alot of people don't like ska?

[Jayrbf13]

@redstar5583 Because they are Dumbasses. Remember Reel Big Fish " The Radio Plays what they want you to hear" from Sell Out. It is funny, very sadly very true.

[redstar5583]

@Jayrbf13 I wanna start a SKA radio station. and fucking go national.

[mrswiss420]

anyone else notice the guy just dancing around the stage?

[Venator2015]

The guy on the right is training for a marathon, that or he's high as sh*t, and the guy with the trumpet is a boss tone.

[dwirullyJ]

@Venator2015

he is doin Skankin

[BstFrndDominiQ]

I love the dude off to the side... Had a mic and everything and yet all he does is dance the entire time... Like a boss... No like a "bosstone" (that was cheesy)

[nofxopivyrancid]

sick celtics bass drum!!!

[Jayrbf13]

To the one guy who disliked this song, Lick Dickie's balls

[rocketboy375]

and Ben is a legend

[rocketboy375]

Recovery have had some great music, blink-182, MxPx and The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, lucky

[kardiez]

I wanna sound like Dewey does XD he smoked a pack a day for 20 years to get his voice like that, then that would mean i can smoke 20 packs a day for 1 year and ill sounds like him right XD

[BillMeister123]

@kardiez no, you will just get cancer.

[Ramonajunie3]

skatastic

[kris0815]

One of my favourite songs of ska...even after listening a several times in a row it makes my legs dancing...

[ghunnter]

Wow, cool band!

[bigwatto95]

What's with the weird dancing guy?

[cowluv9]

0 dislikes. No one dislikes the Bosstones

[ryannee]

That saxophone player looks like Kip from Napoleon Dynamite.

[frankrizzo51]

@ryannee Too funny.

[Timeb0mb]

@ryannee your just jelly cause hes training to become a cage fighter ;-)

[RawbThatPunk]

the trombone player sure sings like hell.

[BitchFunkband]

why the fuck is that guy dancing up on stage?

[Vegeta666Ssj]

wow !! they have a professional dancer in the band !!

[KnightofCydonia15]

@Vegeta666Ssj Ben "The Bosstone" was a good friend/Roadie for the band. Like much of the band at the time, Ben was under age. One night the band was told by a club owner that Ben would have to leave since he wasn't 21 and wasn't in the band. Dicky (the lead singer) insisted Ben was in the band and told Ben to get on stage and jump around so he wouldn't be kicked out. And then it stuck! He's now the bands tour manager as well.

[camisacook]

the guy who just dances is the best!!

[MFGreth]

@camisacook he's actually the band's manager.

[24drummonkey]

his voice sounds like Louis Armstrong!

[kardzfn21]

When I was a freshman in H.S. during the 98-99 school yr. I LOVED being in band-Our director was AWESOME! He played the trombone like I did so we played some REALLY cool stuff including this song-Which if you've ever played this song you know it's ALOT of fun to play but my sophomore yr in H.S.-New director & he didn't like ska music so their was NO WAY we were ever gonna play it under his directon! We put up a big fight for it. Somebody told him once-Work w/us sometime & we'll work more w/you.

[yamahonkawazuki]

@kardzfn21 have no idea what ska or skapunk is, but this song has to be the ultimate 1. driving fast song. 2. riding motorcycle fast song, 3. air guitar/air drum song. the perfect one. if i could wear out a computer hdd replaying this, id be doin it right now lol

[kardzfn21]

@yamahonkawazuki -This song is the ULTIMATE ska song! You don't know what ska music? WOW, that's sad-I say that b/c Your missing out on some GREAT music! Don't know how much Christian music you listen to but a Christian band who is considered ska are The Supertones. Ska is a mix of Jamican rhythm w/Jazz & rock n roll, & some people say a lil' bit of hip hop? Reason I like ska so much is I come from a VERY musical family & it has so many types of music wrapped into 1 to create an AWESOME SOUND!!

[yamahonkawazuki]

@kardzfn21 ive never really paid much attention to the labels. aka SKA. BUT have listened to many many of their bands. including the supertones. anyhoo. its all good. if it sounds good to me, i keep listening to it :)

[daniaguitube]

One of the bests bands os ska, ska-punk, by far! Thank Mighty mighty bosstones! Congratulations from Paraguay!

[sollenee]
