Fishbone: Social Skank
Christine Natanael, Reflex, 1989
GRABBIN' AND RIFFIN', skankin' and ska – there's a revolution happenin'. Combining all the noises, making them all one, Fishbone leads the masses to have some fun. All in their early 20's, these six young black musicians are a shining example of what can be produced when the passion for the music combines with the anger cultivated in the ghetto, fed in the suburbs, and manifested in the streets.
