Product Description
Amazon.co.jp
生まれてから40年近く経った音楽がいまだに強い影響力をもち、かつ時代を先取りしているという例は多くはない。だが、ジャマイカ最高の――そして世界最高の――スカ・グループから届けられたこの32のヒット曲は、まさにその例に該当するのだ。初期のスカは、R&Bと「メント」（ジャマイカ版カリプソ）をごちゃ混ぜにして取りこんでいた――アメリカのブギ・ウギに対するジャマイカの一風変わった返答だったのだ。ドン・ドラモンド、ローランド・アルフォンソ、それに今は亡きトミー・マクックを始めとするスタライツは、ジャズ・ホーンのもつ洗練されたスウィング感を導入した。このセットは、スカタライツが活動を始めたばかりの頃、すなわちコクソン・ドッド率いるスタジオ・ワン・レーベルに在籍していた1964年~65年のトラックを収めたものだ。
スカの軽快な魅力は不滅だ。ただ、その人気は水面下のものになりがちだった。だが今、スカはかつてなかったほどの注目を集めている。『Foundation Ska』を聴けば、スカタライツがなぜ現在でも影響力をもち続けているか分かるだろう。磨き上げられた宝石のようなトラックばかりだ。彼らがバック・バンドを務めたチューンが収録されている点もファンにはたまらないだろう。ボブ・マーリー＆ザ・ウェイラーズの「Simmer Down」、ストレンジャー・コールとケン・ブースがデュエットする「World's Fair」がそれだ。（Elena Oumano, Amazon.com）
From Amazon.com
It's not often that nearly four-decade-old music manages to be both seminal and cutting edge, but these 32 hits from Jamaica's--and the world's--greatest ska outfit are just that. Early ska blended R&B shuffle with mento (Jamaican calypso)--Jamaica's antic response to stateside boogie-woogie. Don Drummond, Roland Alphonso, the late Tommy McCook, and the other Skatalites injected the swinging sophistication of jazz-honed chops, and this set captures the band just starting out, during their '64-'65 tenure at Coxsonne Dodd's legendary Studio One. Ska's buoyant appeal has never died, merely gone underground now and then, and it's raging at an all-time high today. Foundation Ska shows why the Skatalites still dominate. Every track's a burnished gem, and fans will get extra kicks from the band's backing turns for Bob Marley and the Wailers ("Simmer Down") and Stranger Cole and Ken Boothe's "World's Fair" duet. --Elena Oumano
