Skatalites (The) - On The Right Track

More than four decades after the Skatalites formation, ON THE RIGHT TRACK features several original members. Inventor of the reggae drumbeat and founding member Lloyd Knibb Holds the rhythm.

Saxophonist Lester ‘Ska ‘Sterling and soulful vocalist Doreen Schaeffer carry on the never ending rhythm they pioneered. Old school Jamaican musicians Karl ‘Cannonbal’ Byran on tenor sax, Vin Gordon on trombone, Val Douglas on bass, along with Devon james opn guitar are all in the current line up. Ken Stewart, manager and keyboardist since the 80´s, plays a Hammond B3 organ on this album. Kevin Batchelor on trumpet is another reggae veteran and has also played with Maxi Priest, Big Mountain and Steel Pulse. The Skatalities have retained through the years their status as cream of the crop in their genre.

Jazz and ska enthusiasts alike will be drawn in by the hard bop and improv sounds of ON THE RIGHT TRACK. The Skatalites have provided dedicated ska fans with a standard to go by for more than 50. Ska, rocksteady, rudeboy, reggae rockers, dancehall and reggaeton are all children and grandchildren of the Skatalites sound. ON THE RIGHT TRACK invites you to bop, rock and skankas the Skafathers tear it up.

The Skatalites tour Europe in the spring of 2007 and will also be in Holland and Belgium. 19 April Botanique Brussel 20 April Doornroosje Nijmegen 21 April Paradiso Amsterdam
