I listened to the compilation a good few times now and liked most of it.

The Japonicas - Toy Town Blues - Great song to start it off. Definitely one of my favorite from the comp . Couldn't find any info on them though.

Ras Ibuna - Diverse Doctrine - Hmm, another one I liked a lot, but couldn't find any info on. Google didn't help either.

Black Uhuru - Chill Out - I guess you meant Darkness, but anyways, I've got a fair bit of Black Uhuru myself, but I'm still missing out on more . Don't have this track, nor the album.

Dillinger - Dub Them Rasta
- If I liked the previous one's, this should be enjoyable and it definitely was.

The Specials - Do Nothing - Well, can't go wrong with the specials, although not my favorite track, but a good one nonetheless.

Linton Kwesi Johnson - Inglan Is A Bitch - Inglan Is A Bitch! yeah yeah, I get the point .

The Toasters - 2-Tone Army - Not amongst my favorites from the compilation, but still a great tune.

Dreadzone - Ali Baba - Again, not my favorite, but I do welcome the electronic bits.

Ska Cubano- Soy Campesino - Hmm, this one's a bit different to say the least. I'd like to hear more.

The Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra - Natty Parade - Well, its ska and that's what I was looking for wasn't I? I've heard the name before, but never really checked them out. Nice reminder.

jackhammer I have to say I love this compilation. Archive's Meon is very sad and that song from the Fountain is so haunting I like it. Also enjoyed the Kate Bush choice (the laughing and the birds made me happy) and of course Crowded House - great NZ band, beautiful song. And I hadn't heard 'Right Beside You' before but it was a very comforting track. I love this mix.

@Alfred
I listened to your compilation a couple of times as well.

Anyways, from what I heard -

16 Horsepower - Fire Spirit - Alt. country is really not my thing I'm afraid, but I found this listenable. Wasn't all that bad I guess.

Alexisonfire - You Burn First - Well, I've listened to the entire album before, and I kinda liked it. Nothing to be blown away with though.

Asian Dub Foundation - Naxalite - Didn't set my world on fire or any such thing, but I found it highly enjoyable.

At The Drive-In - Lopsided - Didn't do much for me I'm afraid . I quite like Relationship of Command, but well, listening to this "lighter" track alone seemed kinda dull.

Bad Brains - F.V.K. - While I'm not a big fan of Bad Brains, I still do quite like their S/T and Rock for Light. So yeah, they're fine in my book, but I prefer other hardcore punk bands.

Beulah - Silver Lining - Did you just say "Catchy, fun, indie pop"? Those are terms I can't stand an entire album of(unless done very well), but listening to few catchy - pop songs once in a while is always fine with me. Wasn't all that great, but I didn't dislike it either.

Bob Dylan - It Takes A Lot To Laugh, It Takes A Train To Cry - Wonderful track, but well, like you said, most would have already listened to it. Still doesn't matter though whether It's popular or not. I loved it and that's all it mattered.

Cancer Bats - French Immersion - Failed to impress me, but it was definitely enjoyable.

The Clash - 1977
- A great great track, and I've already got this. Still though, never hurts listening to it again.

Descendents - Cool To Be You - I guess you saw this coming, but my least favorite from the compilation .

So, overall, I liked some of it, and others, not so much. As for your "musical taste"...I'm not goona judge. I think it's a stupid term. Listen to whatever you like . Thanks for the compilation.
