Coventry band The Specials are still making music after 40 years. They've got a new album out, and will be playing concerts in the ruins of the city's old cathedral.
In about 1995 my old group the Allstonians were playing a gig in Providence, Rhode island and Lynval just happen to be in town. He spotted the sign that said Ska Night and came in. I ended up chatting with him and asked if he'd like to come to Boston the next day to watch footy at my local pub and enjoy a proper fry up. To my surprise he showed up and after the match he came by my apartment and listened to my collection of classic ska and reggae.
They're a national treasure.
This'll be closer to being a Fun Boy Three reunion than a Specials show.
Great Band!!! So Cutting edge !!! Fresh!!! People of all kinds can live together!!!
Specials, banda querida acá en Venezuela, saludos desde Venezuela.
Horace PANTHER???
Even Horace has a little chuckle when he hears it.
Haha clocked that too
He's a beast on the bass, bro.
Literally roared at that…Horace’s reaction too.😆
Saw them in Luxembourg on Sunday the 31st of March. They were absolutely fantastic 🍾 😍.
A great audience for a great band.
