We went to see 'The Reggulaters' at 'The Horns' down in Watford.
They were on cracking form - the second set was brilliant.
This is hardline Trojan Ska - 1969 pure and simple.
No nutty sound of 'Madness', no 'Two-Tone' (which I love) just Trojan.
Good strong bass line;
Fine Brass section;
Great keyboards....just a lot of fun;
Most of the old favourites are there but since I last saw them back in September, they've added a few more. There's more Reggae but they still did 'Return of Django', so that's alright.
I haven't been out that much recently - my music scene is dying a bit and venues have been closing this year.
The last time I was at 'The Horns' I had a walking frame with me. This time I was moving a bit - so much so that someone in a worse state than me (is that possible?) came up and said; "At least you're still moving a bit".
Which I guess is true.
And we left 'The Horns' at midnight, which isn't such a bad thing either.
