Re-release cover

The Slackers and Friends is an album by the ska/reggae band The Slackers. It saw limited release in November 2002, and was later re-released with two additional tracks on January 27, 2004.

The album consists of collaborations with various figures from the

Skatalites, and acoustic ska artist Chris Murray.[1][2] The original edition of the album also featured an eight-minute-long hidden track
(a remix of the album's other songs) by DJ Cris the Reducer. On the re-release, this was replaced by two additional tracks written and recorded by Susan Cadogan. Several of the songs are remixes of previously recorded Slackers songs, while others are unique to this album.
