I agree that this song has more of a rocksteady beat to it than traditional ska. Desmond did this around 67 or 68 I believe, so it was during the rocksteady period in Jamaica. But it still has ska elements to it. And there is nothing wrong with reggae!

This is one of the many 45's my sisters and brothers would listen to in their youth.

i believe the music genre you guys are looking for is Rocksteady. ska is faster than this. regGay is slower.

Anyone remember the club called Peyton Place next to Bromley South Station...60's, scooters, doobs and the best Ska/ Blue Beat. All nighters and mainly black. Also the Ram Jam club in Brixton...ahhh Geno Washington. PLEASE let me turn back the clock.
