We have this music box for our 1yo and there are a lot kid songs in different pop music styles and she loved "the one with the trumpets". I never really was into ska so I'm asking the collective for the best ska songs they know so I can surprise her with a playlist.

edit: sorry its been hectic and I couldn't get to this "project", thank you all so much for your suggestions!

Mad Caddies - Quality Soft Core Goleta and Bell Tower are real good from what I remember

The Specials - The Specials - A Message to you Rudy is classic, my fave is Concrete Jungle

Toots & the Maytals - Pressure Drop 54-46 (That's my Number) is my fave on this album
