Can anyone recommend some good Ska remasters??

Posted by: novelty on 24 July 2009

I have a handful of The Specials, The Untouchables, The Selector, and comps.

I love this music and would love to expand my collection.

as always, good quality remasters are a plus.

Good link Dean.

'Specials' was the first album I ever owned.

Send me an email with your address and I will send a copy of the free Specials Live disc that came with the Sunday Times a couple of weeks FOC incl postage.

Thanks! that's weird, I can't find the 08 remaster on Amazon.com

It appears I can order from the UK site though.
