63: Dub
Dub evolved out of reggae and is mainly instrumental remixes with additional echo and reverb effects. I don't know why I got so into dub -- maybe because it's kid-friendly music for around the house and easy to work to since they're instrumentals -- but I listened to an awful lot of it last year.

59: Sklash
This episode features The Clash's reggae influences, including their covers of Junior Murvin's "Police & Thieves" and Coxsone Dodd's "Armagideon Time".
(And yes, I realize that The Clash was influenced by reggae and not specifically ska, but it made for a better title since 35% of all ska bands begin with "Sk-"...)
1. (White Man) in Hammersmith Palais
2. Police & Thieves
3. The Guns of Brixton
4. Armagideon Time
5. Revolution Rock
