Judge Dread is not exactly well known despite his run of UK hits (or perhaps because of his run of UK hits). The songs are all early white ska, way before the more well known music of the eighties--the rhythm is quick and sprightly, the mood light and the lyrics clever and raunchy. This is quite funny and quite smutty--not overtly in your face filth. His singing style seems half Jamacian toasting (close to the sing song of Eek a Mouse) and half English dancehall. This is a fun fun CD and well worth owning. In my opinion it is the best white ska.
