I didn't think it was a contractual thing, since the album is Bucket's property (I presume). <br /><br />Being from CA, and having just seen the Toasters in January, it might be a long time till I get to ask :) Either way, can't wait to give it a whirl on the record player.Dr Skanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7744444020349998004.post-52087909087974592562011-03-25T00:00:23.694-04:002011-03-25T00:00:23.694-04:00Thanks, Dr. Ska.

Not sure why they opted to go with "2 Tone Army" instead of "Hard Band for Dead." <br /><br />When the album was released by Pork Pie Records in Germany in 1996 it was re-titled "2 Tone Army," perhaps in recognition of how popular that song was proving to be in the US. And maybe Buck liked it better that the title reflected a song that he wrote instead of a take on a Prince Buster song?<br /><br />Good question for Buck the next time you see him!Steve from Moonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14074565580429334218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7744444020349998004.post-88303002577639388342011-03-24T23:42:16.787-04:002011-03-24T23:42:16.787-04:00What a fascinating read!
