The song, Guns of Navarone was originally an instrumental single recorded by The Skatalites back in 1961 for the film of the same name.
Being the age I am, however, it is probably unsurprising that I first encountered this song when The Specials covered it back in the 1980s. I loved the song then, and it still makes me bounce today.
I recently discovered that Jazz Jamaica also have a cover of Guns of Navarone, proving beyond all doubt that great songs never die.
