Original The Specials/Special AKA 1979 Self Titled Debut 12" LP Album Vinyl Record produced by Elvis Costello and released on 2 Tone Records.  Sleeve in very good to excellent condition.  Sadly the vinyl is only in fair condition with a lot of superficial marking.  The Specials featuring Terry Hall, Neville Staples and Jerry Dammers from Coventry were at the forefront of the late 1970s, early 1980s 2 Tone ska revival movement.  They originally split in 1984 but reformed in 2008 and a new line up remains active to the present day.  The band have released nine studio albums since 1979.  It reached number 4 in the UK album charts and spawned the hit singles A Message To You Rudy and Too Much Too Young, a live version of which went to number 1 in the UK singles charts.  A classic album from a memorable musical and cultural movement of the late seventies, early eighties.  Please note the vinyl is in worn well played condition.
