The Prizefighter Beat was one of the very first songs The Prizefighters ever wrote back in 2006 and rarely gets played live. As an inside-joke with our fans, they often yell "Play Prizefighter Beat!" at our shows much like one would yell FREEBIRD.
In late 2019, a longtime fan and friend of the band, Jeni 'Jock Jams' Larson was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. As someone who has been cheering us on since the band was formed, and the most vocal supporter of playing “The Prizefighter Beat,” the band wanted to make good on 14 years of this odd infatuation.

Jamaican foundation ska legend CHARLEY ORGANAIRE is a regular fixture on the Chicago scene! THE harmonica sound on thousands of early ska sessions at Studio One, Treasure Isle, etc – he was also an accomplished singer / band leader / arranger / label owner who released singles in the 60s on his own ORGANAIRES imprint. He built a lasting relationship with The Prizefighters, resulting in six tracks being recorded together in the Spring of 2014.
This first single sees two of CHARLEY’s vocal classics from the 60s get a new lease on life – “TROUBLES” and “ELUSIVE BABY” (a duet with Whitney) never sounded finer, two scorching ska tunes recorded with vintage equipment and old timey sass. It’s top notch all the way from start to finish. 1964 all over again.
