   About neol davies
neol davies was formerly the sole member of the 2tone band the selecter before it was a band! the instrumental of the same name shared equal billing with the specials song gangsters when the tracks were released in 1979 as the first 2tone records single, although gangsters obviously, over time, became much more well known. the selecter as a band recorded songs by neol which included on my radio, missing words, too much pressure, three minute hero and celebrate the bullet. reggae and blues and songwriting have always been the thread and that continues with the re-released albums box of blues and future swamp now available at Neol Davies below is the only video performance of my 8 piece instrumental ska band in 1995. drums-daniel crosby:bass-adrian litvinoff:hammond-justin dodsworth: tenor sax(section leader)-howell lovell:alto sax-brian clarke:trumpet-pete yeadon:trombone-john 'swordfish' tobin

Love all the new tracks Neol - Excellent work as always and more rangy - Rock blues ska. Will the sitar appear on a track one day I wonder?! Haven't been on My Space for a while so it was a nice surprise - will put a link Facebook to your profile. Good to have seen you at More than Two Tones - albeit fleeting.

I just kissed you.
Click here to kiss me back!

This for the love in your life.

I still remember Paris, my darling, in the park, the lake was dappled by the sunset, a seductive exteme, kiss and giddily I fall at your feet, worshipping your very essence. Later we will awake after a night of stormy passion and my boat will slowly sink in the sea of your beauty.
