Subject: 2.1: Introduction
In response to all of those ``Isn't ska some dance form of reggae?''
questions, I present the following historical background to the music we
call ska, gleaned from liner notes I have lying about the place, various
postings to (news:alt.music.ska), and sundry emailings with helpful ska
fans.
*** [August 96]
The Hypertext Ska FAQ has moved to its final home! The new URL is
http://twillis.com/ska/,
at the International House of Ska. This webified FAQ contains text, links
and graphics that don't fit here in alt.music.ska.
Please update your bookmarks!
This is part 2, $Revision: 1.1 $, posted to (news:alt.music.ska),
(news:rec.music.info), (news:alt.skinheads), (news:alt.answers),
(news:rec.answers), and (news:news.answers). This FAQ is posted twice
a month, whether it needs to be or not.

Michael Cancilla (mailto:mcancill@polyslo.calpoly.edu) posted a long list
of ska bands that I have incorporated into this FAQ. That list has grown
to list over 500 bands! Mike Fragassi (mailto:mfragass@ucs.indiana.edu) emailed
me about 10k in response to my request for more info and is still at it.
Thanks Mikes! Thanks also to everyone else in a.m.s and other reaches of
netspace who sent me info.
Dance harder!
