Reviews - Album Description
18 track compilation featuring the
very best of one of the UK's longest serving ska bands. Founded
back in 1986 and fronted by UK ska legend Gaz Mayall (who
still hosts London's long-running night club Gaz's Rockin'
Blues Club), the band are a mixture of ska, reggae, pop and
Gaelic rhythms. This CD spans The Trojans' career and features
classics like "Gaelic Ska," "Brother Can You
Spare A Pound?," "Ringo" and "The Great
British Spliff." This CD features the best tracks from
their albums "Ala-Ska," "Wild & Free,"
"Skalalitude," "Spirit Of Adventure" and
"Cool Rulers." The CD comes complete with a 12-page
booklet with lyrics and in-depth (and we mean in-depth) sleeve
notes from Chief Trojan Warrior Gaz Mayall. Classic British
ska!
Review - THE
TROJANS : Trojans Warriors - best of the trojans
By Dell (Backdoor
Promotions England).
Moon Ska Europe were so impressed by the
output that The Trojans have had on the International Ska
Scene, that in 1998 they decided to release a Best of compilation
by the band.
This 18 track cd contains hits including Ringo, Gaelic Ska,
Lumpi and Brother Can You Spare A Pound?, and it is a monster
collection of all of your favourite tunes by The Trojans,
covering their triumphant recording career from Ala Ska to
Cool Rulers.
If you, criminally, do not own any albums by The Trojans,
then this cd would be a good starting point before you rush
back to purchase the other albums. Check out this compilation,
as it is hotter than the Sun.
