Terry Hall is a Ska act. Their sound grew out of Leila Arab, The Dead 60s, Tricky and Mark Ronson. Those roots explain a lot about how Terry Hall arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Morrissey, Kirsty MacColl, The Coral, Dexys Midnight Runners and Prefab Sprout, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Gwen Stefani, Russel Hobbs, 2-D, Nearly God and Rico Blanco, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation.
