Mark Foggo - A State of Mind 1983


Here's a fantastic Mark Foggo LP, A State of Mind. The bass player is really going to town on these cuts, and the keyboardist is laying down some tasteful reggae shuffles and counter melodies to Foggo's plaintive vocals. Actually produced by the same person, The Mad Frenchman, as Ska Pig. Nice! The Choice is very reminiscent of the (English) Beat.

Mark Foggo's Skasters - Ska Pig 1989



Hello Ska People! Another Legendary Ska Artist, Mark Foggo and his Skasters! There's some real gems on this one such as Hello, "chickitup and sing and go SKA(?)", then there's Dolly which is a tribute to his inflatable girlfriend. Two Legs, is also a crack-up.
