Subject: 3.1: Introduction
In response to all of those ``Isn't ska some dance form of reggae?''
questions, I present the following historical background to the music we
call ska, gleaned from liner notes I have lying about the place, various
postings to (news:alt.music.ska), and sundry emailings with helpful ska
fans.
This is part 3, $Revision: 3.37 $, posted to (news:alt.music.ska),
(news:rec.music.info), (news:alt.skinheads), (news:alt.answers),
(news:rec.answers), and (news:news.answers). This FAQ is posted twice
a month, whether it needs to be or not.
This FAQ file is also available for anonymous ftp on the archive site
rtfm.mit.edu as the file `pub/usenet/news.answers/music/ska-faq/part3'.

Disclaimer: I am not a musician, nor do I play one on TV.
Neither am I a musical historian. I do love ska music, so I offer this
material unto the public domain.
Acks:
Michael Cancilla (mailto:mcancill@polyslo.calpoly.edu) posted a long list
of ska bands that I have incorporated into this FAQ. That list has grown
to list over 500 bands! Mike Fragassi (mailto:mfragass@ucs.indiana.edu) emailed
me about 10k in response to my request for more info and is still at it.
Thanks Mikes! Thanks also to everyone else in a.m.s and other reaches of
netspace who sent me info.
Dance harder!

Subject: 3.3: What are the names of some ska bands?
These names are culled from various sources, especially Michael Cancilla
(mcancill@polyslo.calpoly.edu), Brian Rosenthal (brianr@america.com) and
some others on a.m.s. Thanks to everyone who sends me info. We now list
over 500 bands! Yes, we finally go `A' to `Z'.
The format:
Bandname (Location) {Style} [time period]
e.g.
Fubars, The (Verona) {Funky ska} [1989--1992]
So, please help! Send me any info you have for this little project,
which I think will make this band list much more informative.
Also, for bands with non-English names, I will alphabetize by the name,
including the article (`Los,' `Die,' `La,' etc.). That is, `Les Enfants de
St. Gall' are listed under `L,' even though, in a more multilingual world I
would list them under `E.'
