The sound of Dexys Midnight Runners before “Come on Eileen” was more ska, less hobo, but still has the alot of the catchiness and strange British affectations about its vocals. “Geno” captures the bouncy flavor that made Dexys so popular, without the political messages that flood many of their other tunes. There are a couple other songs that you can find on the youtubes from their debut album, but listen to this one first, it’ll make you happy (or you’ll just make fun of me for saying something positive about ska)
