Keep It Going, the fifth full-length from Solvang, California's Mad Caddies, landed on Fat Wreck Chords on May 1, 2007, with a producer and a guest list that pull its ska punk toward reggae. Wayne Jobson, a Grammy winner whose credits run from Toots & the Maytals and Gregory Isaacs to No Doubt, sat behind the board, and Black Uhuru's Duckie Simpson drops in for a cover of Delroy Wilson's "Riding For a Fall".
The Cherry Poppin' Daddies lent a crew of players, trumpeter Dana Heitman, organist Dustin Lanker and saxophonists Ian Early and Sean Flannery, and songs like "State of Mind" skank and swing rather than just thrash. Even the cover reaches past punk: a photo of the Spirit of New Orleans Brass Band, leader Layton Martens on trombone at one end and Anthony "Tuba Fats" Lacen at the other. A vinyl pressing followed in 2014.
