Beskrivning
This release was the first Megalith Records Toasters re-issues (please visit toasters.org for a full discography). Every songs from all the past Skaboom! release have been included here, as well as a never before released song (the song is a live track of which no studio track exists) "Calling All The Rude Boys" featuring the great Joe Jackson. Being the first full length Toasters record (demo tapes, 7inches and 12inch EPs had only been released prior to the original Skaboom!), this album was and still is a pivotal record in the history of American and even global ska music releases. Setting the foundation for what many would base their sound off of in the late 80s and early 90s, Skaboom! laid the ground work for what would become The Toasters powerhouse of horn driven ska music and the creation of the NY / East Coast ska sound.
Many of the songs are still in heavy rotation at a Toasters live gig today, including "Weekend In LA", "Run Rudy Run" and "Shocker!". And of course the encore fan favorite "Matt Davis". This album has seen many vinyl, tape and cd pressings over the years. This is roughly the 7th cd release for this album. We have just repressed it at Megalith with some changes to the artwork as well as removed the music video (please check out our Toasters DVD) and have just pressed it in Europe as well. There are quite a few known variations among the various cd pressings. Please check over at toasters.org for a full list of release versions and interesting variations and thoughts about Skaboom!
