so sad that this band is not playing in this times.... now! we need the redskins more than ever! THIS is skinhead -music ... soul ska RnB n OI! in a mix that never has benn there since the redskins
I would call this herbert SOUL, sounds a bit like The Housemartins, and they were influenced mostly by Northern/Tamla SOUL and some punk. To my knowledge, they were the only ever skinhead soul band. Also the first to have a more sporty style (adidas trainers/boots)
I rootling through my Dad's old vinyl yesterday cos he's just got a new turntable and we found this - awesome! My new favourite communist skin-head band.
The drummer Paul can still be found playing in bands and the bassist Martin is now a music teacher. As for the frontman Chris not much has been seen of him since the late 80s.
for a while X-moore lived in France. My friend bumped into him on a Paris bus - he had his carte orange and everything in perfect order but no recent news of recent REDSKINS movement to the best of my knowledge. Bass Man sometimes gets contacted by specialist British press...I loved their brass section...I mean no style wahwahtsover just pure groove + feeling + precision. Dean rules Ok
Weren't the Newtown Neurotics really involved as well? They were one of my all time fave bands of that era...along with Bragg. No one really gives a shit anymore about the state of affairs. I feel that people have just gotten tired of trying to have their say...now they just want their TV's and fancy cars and fuck the rest. Hopefully that will change.
God, I love this song! And this video! One of the greatest albums EVER written. In a time for action and thought, they called for it! Just like the Neurotics. And the "bo" part is awesome.
I will always raise my glass to them, and I'm straight edge! Thus, my glass is chocolate milk. To all the Punks, Skins, Reds, Anarchists, RASHs, SHARPs, Antifa, the workers, and those downright downtrodden worldwide... cheers.
for me, one of the best bands in history!
