    Rhoda Dakar Rhoda Dakar Sings The Bodysnatchers (RSD '15 Edition)

    Not On Label

    Limited and hand numbered to 250 Copies. Rhoda Dakar began her musical career as lead vocalist with all female 2 Tone band, The Bodysnatchers. They only ever released two singles, 'Let's Do Rocksteady' and 'Easy Life'. After a year together they split and Rhoda went on to guest with The Specials in Europe and the USA, having featured on their second album, 'More Specials'. After their demise, and before joining Jerry Dammers' new project, she recorded The Bodysnatchers' first original song, 'The Boiler', a harrowing tale of date rape, which was inevitably banned. The Special AKA spent the next two years recording 'In The Studio', spawning a top ten hit with 'Free Nelson Mandela'. Disillusioned, Rhoda left the music business, only returning occasionally to guest with friends like Dr Robert, The Communards and Apollo 440. Now she is back with what has been hailed as the lost 2Tone album, 'Rhoda Dakar sings The Bodysnatchers', including many previously unrecorded tracks. It features old friends from The Specials, Horace Panter and Lynval Golding, plus the cream of current Ska scene musicians.
