Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra – 花ふぶき～愛だろ、愛っ。～

Another discovery from my trip to Japan last year. Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra. The name says it all really. They play everything from ska “standards” like Caravan through to funk with Bernard Purdie and the Sesame Street theme. They’ve been doing it since 1985, perform all around the world, have their own Wikipedia entry and sound like they’re still having the time of their lives.
