The bint out of Selector is a friend of a friend.

I met her at a party several years ago and didn't realise who she was.

We didn't exactly hit it off.

This thread works on the same principal as this one:
https://hallofthewendigo.forumotion.com/t487-rank-the-prog-rock-bands


So you add them yourselves.

Before Wendykins interruptions I would have put the English Beat at the top and Bad Manner between The Specials and Madness.

Thus:

The British Beat
The Selector
The Specials
Bad Manners
Madness

I would have thought there would have been a load of Ska Bands, even if they'd only made two 7" singles or something, maybe I need to dig deeper, DEEPER!
