The Specials (sometimes called The Special AKA) are an English 2 Tone ska revival band formed in 1977 in Coventry, England. Their music combined a "danceable ska and rocksteady beat with punk's energy and attitude", and had a "more focused and informed political and social stance" than other ska groups.
The group was formed by songwriter/keyboardist Jerry Dammers, with Terry Hall (vocals), Lynval Golding (guitar, vocals) and a rhythm section. The band wore mod-style '60s-period rude-boy outfits (porkpie hats, tonic and mohair suits, and loafers). In 1979, the song 'Too Much Too Young' reached the number one spot in the UK.

i went the night before at the civic hall in wolverhampton and what a band as good as if not better than they were in the late 70's this dvd contains all the classics including ghost town and gangsters , warning this dvd needs to be played loud so you might upset a few neighbours as i have lol.
I went to see The Specials during the same tour as they filmed this show, and to be honest. I was in pure amazment.
The bags of energy each of the members have to deliver a fantastic stage performance.
Well worth buying for any fan of The Specials or Ska.
Received this from Play today, and have already watched. This gig is fantastic. All Specials tracks here, and all sounding as great as they did 30 years ago. The documentary is really interesting too, seen mainly through the perspective of fans today. Roll on October, when i'll be seeing them at Plymouth, for the first time, cant wait!Any fan of the Specials will not be disappointed with these DVDs, pure brilliance!!!!!!
