Best of the Specials

The Specials want you to "Stop your messing around." Let Parlophone help you straighten right out with a 20-song collection that distills the British group's distinctive fusion of punk and ska.

Originally issued in 2008 as a CD/DVD set, this new, CD-only edition of THE BEST OF THE SPECIALS covers music that the band recorded between 1979 and 1984. Along with the group's debut single "Gangsters," the disc also includes both of The Specials' UK #1's - "Too Much Too Young" (1980) and an extended version of "Ghost Town" (1981).
