This is a compilation of all tracks from all of their 7"s plus some rare compilation tracks. I believe this is all of their songs that were not on any of their albums.
1 Der Große Blonde
2 Dessau 05
3 Heartbeat*
4 Moviestar*
5 Fighters*
6 Yvonne*
7 Flower & Bee
8 Hero of Night

12 Only For...?
13 Poupée De Cire
14 La Farce
15 Die Wilde Horde
16 Scootergirl
17 The Evil is Back
18 Quasimono
19 Ein Bisschen Freundlich Sein
* I tried to normalize the sound so that all tracks have the same volume but the 4 songs from the first self-titled 7" play at a really low volume. If I adjust them to match the volume of the other tracks they sound horrible so I left them at the volume they were released in.

I have a large collection of rare ska songs from the late 70s throughout the 90s. I made sure that every song in this compilation is something I personally ripped from my own records and tapes. If you have any of these songs that you also ripped and shared online at any point in the last 30 years I can guarantee that these rips are my own and not your rips.
The only exception is the band The Insteps from Cardiff. I do have a tape from a television studio recording with three tracks but my copy sounds horrible so the two tracks I share here are the versions I found online because they sound way better than my own.
The song by The Stars That Wouldn't Shine is not ska but if you have their album you might appreciate this track to complete your collection.

2 Spankers [UK] - She's the One (1981)
3 Little Chief - 21st Century (1988)
4 Eastcliff [Switzerland] - Faggiolini Circus (1983)
5 The Riffs - Monday Morning (1989 demo)
6 Slavdik [South Carolina] - La Bamba (NOT a cover of the song you know)
7 The Frits - Sense of Life (original 1989 version)
8 The Frits - Work (original 1989 version)
9 Zzipp - You're Better Off with Me
10 Zzipp - Groupie
