• Prince Buster with The Determinations – Ten Steps Ahead
    • 1. Ten Steps Ahead
    • 2. Two Steps Back

    Prince Buster¨s final recording before he sadly passed away and the last release from Japan¨s finest ultimate Ska band - The Determinations. The tracks have been buried in the vaults for years....and have now finally seen the light of day! A remake of Buster's "One Step Beyond" originally recorded in '64 and later catapulted to worldwide fame when UK's Madness Band covered it in '79. Rather than just taking “one step beyond”, Buster charges ten steps ahead!!.....shaking the world with its sheer brilliance. The session came to life in 2003 when Buster visited Japan....and he was so impressed by The Determinations performance, he personally requested to collaborate with them! RIP Buster
