59: Sklash

This episode features The Clash's reggae influences, including their covers of Junior Murvin's "Police & Thieves" and Coxsone Dodd's "Armagideon Time".

(And yes, I realize that The Clash was influenced by reggae and not specifically ska, but it made for a better title since 35% of all ska bands begin with "Sk-"...)

1. (White Man) in Hammersmith Palais
2. Police & Thieves
3. The Guns of Brixton
4. Armagideon Time
5. Revolution Rock
