Rude Boy Gone Jail - Clarendonians

SKA-SKA-SKA!!! Tru an Tru!!!

This is rocksteady to me, but six of of one half dozen of the other, what's the big deal? Fine Jamaican roots no matter what the tag applied.

Rocksteady.

I think it may count as a transitional tune. There wasn't a sudden shift from ska to rocksteady over night, this is somewhere between the two. Who cares - it's a great tune!

thought this wos called rocksteady genre

When I was a child I was given a bunch of old singles of which this was one. There were lots of obscure old ska singles in there. I was amazed to find this song on Youtube. Another was a funny song called 'Dr. Kitch', and also 'Mr. Walker' by The Mighty Sparrow. I'm going to look for those too!

Actually also called "Rude Boy Gone A Jail", so I''ve got no idea what offends anyone. Happy new Year.

Not disputing. I never heard this song before. This genre is actually,, more accurately, called "Rocksteady"! Rocksteady differs from ska musically as the tempo is slower and more relaxed.
