The Ska revival at the start of the 80s brought us a handful of great bands, one of the best being The Beat (known in some parts of the world as The English Beat) , a particularly favourite of the 80s Lunchbox which is why their official site is this week’s 80s Lunchbox Website Of The Week. Find out all about the band history, the spin off groups, the singles, albums and what they’re all doing these days. You can hear the 80s Lunchbox, weekdays from midday on The Cheese.
