The Specials where the soundtrack of my youth.

[@mrmouse7642]

Agreed. Seminal Two Tone - soundtrack to my youth, too. Cracking lyrics - "Black White Unite" - how can you argue with that? Stylish clothes too! Difficult times, though.

[@AtticBoy68]

Who the fuck gives this a thumbs down? This is class.

[@rippi37]

These guys are awesome !! Such young lads! I just read a comment that Terry was only 19 at this time !! Wow ! Missing you Terry xxx Thanks mike1970c

[@GriefTourist]

Terry's gone but we'll always have the music.
