Best Ska Rocksteady Early Reggae Album 2010 – the final results
So, now you like to know which album was voted „Best Ska Rocksteady Early Reggae Album 2010“ here at joescholes.com. … that’s more than fair.
The Top 3
44 bands were on the list. Here are the three albums with the most votes:
- Red Soul Community – What Are You Doing? (180 votes)
- Hotknives – About Time (155)
- Mr. T-Bone & Friends – The Instrumental Session Vol. 1 (97)

The participation
Thanks for the more than 1500 votes that have been cast between Dec 16th 2010 and Jan 15th 2011. That was really overwhelming. Until today 412 people liked the poll posting on Facebook: incredible.
The Editing
This was my least favoured part of the poll. But it was necessary, since the form that I used for the poll let me down in some respects. I spent the last two hours editing my spreadsheet with the votes. There were some double entries with the same ip-address, the same date and the same vote. I erased these.
2011
I am already anxious to know about the best releases of 2011. There will most probably be a new poll here at joescholes.com. If you are in a band let me know about your album so that I can include you in the list. Feel free to send me a copy to:

The Comments
It would also be interesting for me to hear what you thought about this poll. Please drop me a comment. Thanks for the words of encouragement I already received. There were also some helpful comments that lead me to believe that I should change the voting process, maybe ask for email addresses of the voters in order to make multiple votes from any one person harder. This time my focus was to make the voting process as easy as possible. I hope you enjoyed the poll and maybe found more interesting stuff at joescholes.com.
