5.0 out of 5 stars Simply a masterpeice, February 3, 2004

This review is from: Ska N B (Audio CD)

Just because the lead singer Buster Bloodvessel is a fat skinhead with a big tongue that he sticks out a lot and that they do songs about being fat and liking ska and rnb dont mean theyre not as intellectual as Radiohead or Sonic Youth.The Manners paint their visions of cats,monsters,woolly textures etc from a far richer palette.The brass section on this peice is also superb.If John Coltrane was a skinhead into ska he would have begged to join Bad Manners.Buster Bloodvessel is the ska Biggy Smalls except unlike that fat naughty legend this one still has blood pumping through him.Mind you he has a similiar sense of fun but not quite as many tunes about crack.Ska n B is Van Goff for the ear.

It was with relief we listened to discover this was the original versions of the songs not some horrid american re-mix which is what we have found on another version that we downloaded from itunes. Ska fans enjoy!!! BTW - we saw Fatty at the Annandale Hotel a month or so ago - and he and the band were awesome. They've still got it, if you get a chance to see Bad Manners live GO FOR IT

Among the true innovators of popular music and one of the first artists to fuse ska and fatness while embracing the questions that drive us all, and sticking your tongue out as well.
