Holy Shit, Thuh Party Animal had to drive for many hours this evening.

Yo. For the first time in forever I randomly heard an amazing previously unknown song on big-time comercial radio that blew me away, granted it was Canadian radio. Have you ever heard of the Payolas??? The song was Eyes of a Stranger, it had a reggae-like feel a-la the police but way cooler. Turns out it was released in 1982 and wuz a big hit in canada, they're from victoria, BC. I HIGHLY recommend listening to this song if you haven't heard it.

Were there any other ska-reggae Canadian groups besides the payolas before the 90s,I never heard of any.
