The Selecter - On My Radio/Too Much Pressure (The Quay Sessions)

The 2 Tone legends bring the ska pressure to Glasgow, with a massive medley including a certain Proclaimers number.

R.I.P GAPS. You live on in the timeless top-notch music you helped create. Thank You X

[@luiszuluaga6575]

Quality music from a quality band. Pauline has an incredible voice after all these years and still is gorgeous. There’s nothing but joy behind those eyes and that smile. Special shout out to Arthur Hendrickson as co-lead vocals. 😍👉🏼🤎

Pauline Black you helped change the country for the better much love

[@grahammcnamara4803]

No Gaps...No Selecter. I am gutted.

[@stuartbrittain7835]

My favourite British ska band of them all - saw them in the backroom of a proper skinhead pub in north London in their first appearance ever in London - everyone was dancing!

[@kevinedwards2577]

What a fantastic voice ! She is with out doubt the queen of ska ! Just as good now as the original days of 1979 " the 2 tone era ! Great voice ! Great songs ! &10/10 in my books every time !

Yeaaah ❤Pauline My Favoirite Ska Woman ..Greetings from Upper Silesia South West Poland Autonomic old school area

[@annakeye]

Saw them play in 2014 here in Christchurch, Aotearoa/NZ and it was a joyfest. Got talking to Pauline for a few minutes. She is everything as lovely as she appears. Gracious, friendly, happy to chat and just puts out so much great energy. Not that I want to take anything away from Gaps and others and especially not Neol Davies but Pauline Black's voice is the thing that makes The Selecter immediately recognisable. She's a tiny dynamo of a woman.

[@robm9339]

orginal was 140 bpm, this versions running at over 155bpm - and still the vocal is so super sweet. Respect!

How can this not make you happy and energized.

Yes. Not just about her as a personality but the band and the music in its entirety.

How the ffff can people listen to this and SIT there not moving a muscle?? On My Radio and Too Much Pressure would raise the dead and get em skanking. And, damn, doesn't Pauline still look so fine? Plus her voice still has that gorgeous, sexy huskiness. Incredible.

[@robotgoose225]

Guitar guy's doing a great job here, Respect. I think it could've been me up there instead, though lol...🤔😄 cos, around six years ago I got a call from Aitch asking if I'd play guitar. I was already playing guitars for a band Black Canvas (Soul/ Dub Dance hall) so i guess someone from that circle of musicians kindly suggested me...🤷🏻‍♂️ but it was gonna clash with a date BC already had booked.And I seriously was looking forward to hittin my local town with this Reggae/Rock/Soul thing I was involved in. I (reluctantly) declined, but that looks a scream up there, with those guy's...! Seriously the guitarist who's playing here, is doing the business. He's perfect really. Seems to put the right energy into it, looks the part too,, and has a cooler guitar than me... the guy's cooler than me full stop 😅 so they are lucky to have him however, (and there is a 'however'😬😛 ) I think I just have the edge on his playing...(I'm a guitarist, of course I'm gonna say that🤣) don't get me wrong though, I like this guy, and I like his playing, and if it'd been me, it wouldn't have been the same. He fits. Obviously the bass player's makin it happen, too... and that's what matters. My playing might have been slightly more 'there' but would it have been the right kinda 'there'...hmm that's the question ain't it...🤔 And (I probably don't hear you ask lol) was the loyalty which I pledged to my other band, 'honoured'..? well...basically... was it fuck 🤣🤣 The whole band stood me up.... and I jammed/improvised the 45m slot on guitar myself... with the drummer from another band I was playing (bass) with, who were there waiting to play later, on the same bill (Stroud Fringe) Can you believe that tho..? No, neither could I....😳😂 anyway, the performance later with the other band (Dustmites) was fantastic. Probably one of our best shows (Originals/covers 'Doors', Alman Bros, The Who etc) which kinda made up for it. There was a reason why I got a call, I'm very good. (bass/guitar) but this guy's great. I love his guitar too, whatever it is 😎❤

[@user-wq7dl8lu3t]

The 2 tone gere is my Dr prescribed Antidepressant. Whenever i am feeling a little blue i put 2 tone on and 5 mins lately im alll good.

[@bobly]

Now John that would be great 2-Tone reunion gig or tour The Selecter, Madness and Bad Manners Now That's What I Call Skanking

[@annakeye]

@@bobly If only Ranking Roger was alive to bring back 'The Beat'. Oh wait, forgot about Dave Wakeling. Saw both versions of the band play over the years, and both were polished, energetic, fun and absolutely tight as a nut. For some reason though, Roger's version edges Dave's out. That being said, together they were fantastic and now they can never resolve their differences for a reunion gig showing what two tone is all about.

Such better video work compared to their 1980s videos. Back then the cameramen figured if the performers were jumping then they should also. Nope. Impressed how well her voice has held up! I notice her accent has changed to mid Atlantic.
