THE SPECIALS

One of the best pop performances I've ever seen was a Specials gig in Philadelphia during the early 1980s. The subject came up several hours ago, so I thought I'd post a couple of videos in honor of the band.

For period style, here is "Gangsters."

And for a taste of the live experience, here is "Monkey Man."
