Comments for dance hall crashers, 1989-1992

I have been a Dance Hall Crashers fan for some time now, and I must say this is definitely my favorite album by them. It has the same peppy upbeat ska tunes with a little less punk sounds than their newer albums. It also features a variety of horns on each song, something you don''t hear much of on "Lockjaw" or "Honey, I''m Homely." However, 1989-1992 has 19 songs on it. On the list it shows song 18 as "Fight All Night, DHC," when it is really song 18: Fight All night, and song 19: DHC. All in all, 1989-1992 has great songs, catchy music and lyrics, and great harmonization by Karina and Elyse.

>>The Dance Hall Crashers are straight from the San Francisco East Bay area and are one of the mostunique bands on the West Coast today. With two spastic women jumping around on stage, the band canget any crowd on their feet. Sprung from the loins of harcore/ska phenomenon Operation Ivy, in 1989,Dance Hall Crashers have been flooring audiences for the past 3-4 years, with the exception of the yearand a half `break` in 1991-2. With members from a variety of musical backgrounds such as ska, punk,reggae, and funk it is no wonder they`ve managed to aquire their own unique style. Their upbeat soundappeals to all ages and allows them to infiltrate virtually any market, which is obvious by the range oftheir past bills with ska and reggae legends - The Beat, Bad Manners, Pato Banton - to the best of thecurrent California funk scene: Primus, No Doubt, Fungo Mungo, etc.<< - brian r., moon records
