The Specials - Specials DOUBLE LP
SKU: CDLTTH5001
Description:
The Specials are one of the defining bands of the late 70’s/early
80’s along with Jerry Dammers’ iconic label Two Tone Records.
Originally formed in 1977 as The Coventry Automatics, The Specials
combined Jamaican ska and Rocksteady mixed with the energy of punk
and launched a whole Ska Revival which helped fellow like-minded
bands Madness, The Beat and The Selecter to release their first
singles. The Specials first single, ‘Gangsters’, was released in
May 1979 with independent distribution by Rough Trade and the
initial pressing of just 5,000 records sold out. The band and label
soon signed with Chrysalis Records who picked up on the release of
‘Gangsters.’ The next single, ‘A Message To You Rudy’, followed in
September with their first album released soon after in
October.
This 40th Anniversary Edition of their debut album ‘Specials’ has
been mastered and cut at half-speed by Miles Showell at Abbey Road
Studios using the original production tapes. This edition has been
split across 2x 12” vinyl at 45rpm for optimum audio quality.
