some rather rare or hitherto unreleased tracks by 21 southwestgerman neo-ska-bands: SKA 21 featuring the busters, nu sports, the juggins, ezzo, piracy, area 52, cubic circle and many others


there was a time when all the bands had pages on myspace and when the neo-neo-ska finally reunited with polka and schottische not kosmische. in 2003 the southwestgerman radio station freies radio für stuttgart (that's free radio for stuttgart; they were not allowed to call themselves just free radio stuttgart) started the programme file under ska, featuring nothing but oldvintage and neonew rocksteady, blue beat and ska. 


in 2008 they asked all those neoskatalighters in the surroundings of stuttgart to contribute to a benefit sampler for the free radio, and at least 21 of them did. the sampler has long since sold out and is almost completely unknown to most serious collectors of obscure neo-ska releases. so for your pleasure: here we go.


furthermore i contributed some information to the entry on discogs using my nom de guerre vandaale; all scans you may find there and a little bit more of course are also included in the .rar-file you can download way down below. and by the way: this cd was completely unknown to me until i found it this morning at the stuttgart zora for 35 cent.
