News The Ska flames: ska fever

Reviewed by Dell (Backdoor Promotions England).

During the late eighties, Japan was experiencing a ska boom, and a host of acts emerged from the nation. With Gaz Mayall often appearing on TV and performing live in Japan, it gave him the time to check out the bands that were emerging underneath the Rising Sun.

One of the best Japanese ska acts are The Ska Flames, whose authentic thunderous ska is quite delightful. Gaz wasted no time, & asked the band to record an album for Gaz's Rockin Records.

Ska Fever was released in 1988, & it became one of the must have ska releases of that particular time. The UK dancehalls & ska discos were all rocking to the Ska Flames that year, and the album was voted as ' Best of 1988 ' in some global fanzines. That does not surprise me. Hot Jamaican ska from Japan !!
