Review - THE TROJANS : ALA - SKA
By Dell (Backdoor Promotions England).

The Trojans are one of the most important bands to ever emerge from the UK' s ska scene. Fronted by ska dude Gaz Mayall, the band mix ska with fusions of hot blues & reggae.

Ala Ska was first issued in 1987, and it set so much of an example in Great Britain, that one year later it inspired another ska revival in the country with the band headlining ska festivals & becoming press darlings in leading music papers like the NME and Melody Maker.

Ala - Ska is a quality album, & its mix of uptempo ska, soothing reggae & celtic cuts like Gaelic Ska, make it a must for all music lovers.

The authentic ska blasts of When The War Comes, This Music's Got Soul & Good Friends show just why The Trojans became so famous on the international ska scene, while the more mellow tunes of Trojan Warriors and Soul & Inspiration brings to light Gaz Mayall's capability of producing hit reggae tunes.

Ala - Ska started it all in the United Kingdom, and twenty years on, the album still sounds so fresh and full of life, and justifies why it finds itself firmly cemented in the Classic Ska Album category.
