I don't know who Jeff Cardoso is but I believe he was somehow involved with the bands Skeptics and Acetones. He recorded several songs for an album called "Late for Work". I have included that album with this download.

Comarec - With a Girl Like You 7" (1977)

 Comarec -or- The Comarec Band was a band from the Netherlands who released this one single. The A-side is an original song and the B-side is a cover of the Box Tops' classic song. 

Both A and B sides were done in quasi 2-Tone style ska which is more impressive when you realize that this record predates the 1979 ska revival by two years.   

A- With a Girl Like You

B - The Letter

 Very rare release from this ska-punk band from Australia. They have another tape which I do have but I'm having a little bit of trouble editing it. I'll post it when I figure things out. 

Members of Trippin' Phil's All-Skas were in an earlier band called Boxing Tostados.

Bo Katzman Gang - I'm in Love with My Typewriter 7" (1983)

 Not exactly ska but certainly ska-ish. The A-side and B-side have the ska influence. 

This was a band from Switzerland who released two albums and lots of singles in the 80s. I don't know if they had any other ska or ska/reggae-inspired songs. I have heard a lot of their other stuff but not all of it and from what I heard this is their only ska inspired endeavor. 

My copy does not have the cover so I respectfully stole the image from Discogs. 

A - I'm in Love with My Typewriter

B - Take Me Home Tonight

Bellary - Bellary EP (2003)

 

 This is a ska band from Sweden. I don't know if they ever released anything aside from this demo EP but the first song "The Wheel" should be considered a great ska classic. It sounds like all of that great ska from the early 90s.
