From 1979, before a crowd of 2,000 in The Netherlands, an almost painfully young Andy Summers, Stewart Copeland and Gordon Sumner (”Sting”) otherwise known as The Police, turned in a very nice live performance of their ska-influenced “Walking On The Moon.”

I’ve always preferred their early, ska-tinged music to anything later, which became too mainstream and too political. This was one of the better and better known ones from that era. But, “Man In A Suitcase” was nice, too, but lesser known.

Continuing on in the ska “white boy reggae” vein, here is a video of reggae legend Peter Tosh singing his classic “(Walk) And Don’t Look Back” accompanied by a white boy.

Mick Jagger, lol.
