SPECIALS S/T LP
Two-Tone Records ?– CDL TT 5001, Two-Tone Records ?– CDL TT5001
1979

Legendary album and the best ska record from this period.

Released on 19 October 1979[1] on Jerry Dammers' 2 Tone label, the album is seen by some as the defining moment in the UK ska scene. Produced by Elvis Costello, the album captures the disaffection and anger felt by the youth of the UK's "concrete jungle"—a phrase borrowed from Bob Marley's 1972 album Catch a Fire but equally apposite used here to describe the grim, violent inner cities of 1970s Britain.
