Ska/Reggae does have a strong following though.

I don't think it will happen the way it did before,although there may be some small stirrings I can't see there being a whole 'scene' again. The social conditions have to be ther to create the correcxt chemistry. Last time in the late 70's we hade 2nd/3rd generation west indian kids who had been jamming around youth clubs with their equally disenfanchised white punk schoolmates whilenamoured with their Dad's sharp suits and boss tunes.

It's taken me a while to appreciate it but I've certainly got into The Specials lately!
