Yeah, Rosko, I think Phoenix City could be exchanged for several of my choices. It's a great song, and it did slip my mind. After a few top favorites, I've found that the Skatalite's material is so strong that it's hard to miss.
I did mean to invite others to share their favorites, for fun, AND so that myself and others could learn more of what we may be missing.

Ball of Fire
Pussy Cat Ska
Reburial (possibly my fave Skatalites tune ever!)
Ska Boo Da Ba
Latin Goes Ska
Nimble Foot Ska
Sauvitt are some that come to mind, though they weren't strictly credited to the Skats...or even though i know many are covers or borrow phases here and there.
i also think that there are great tunes which rarely get credit on their US albums of the nineties; Some are really great!
