5.0 out of 5 stars A great compilation, August 19, 2000

By	K. Kasicki (St. Louis MO USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

A compilation is the best way to get into new bands and this CD is one of the best i have heard. If you like ska music, this is a must own. If you are just getting into ska, pick this up as a starter. All of the bands are fantastic. I have never heard a better third wave comp.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's a kickin' CD, March 13, 2000

By	Anderska (Andersland) - See all my reviews

I think that it is a great CD. I just bought it the other week, and already I listen to it way more than I should. It has the traditional second and third wave ska sound (hence the title) and it is just so much fun. The "Bumblebee Tuna Song" is so much fun, and other great ones are: "Liquor Store" by LTJ (my favotires), "Inspector Gadget" by Ska King Crab, and "Rudy, Do You Know" by Downbeat Rulers. The CD is increadible as a whole and just fun. I recommend it to any person looking to get into ska/punk, and even if you already enjoy the music. A great CD overall!

5.0 out of 5 stars This Ska CD kicks, August 4, 2000

By	"fidodawg" (CA United States) - See all my reviews

This CD is Amazing! Each track is a masterpiece. My favorites include the Bumble Bee Tuna Song (Mephiskapheles) and Coffee (AWOL). If you Only know one of the Artists and have not heard of the rest, then you will be delighted to hear that each band featured is very similar to the next. They all Rock! If you're into Ska, or want to get into Ska. This is it. It has everything. Buy it now. nuff said.
