MAD CADDIES Vinyl Records and CDs

Ska will never die, at least not as long as revivalists like Mad Caddies are around to resuscitate it when it looks as though it's about to falter. Of course, the more things stay the same, the more they change, and although they rely on a few standard codes of Ska -- up/down rhythms, horns galore, and beats that fall just left of center -- they also add a few new sounds such as raging guitars and hyperactive vocals.
