Second Album. REMASTERED at HALF-SPEED!
And with heavyweight REMASTERED 7”.
With Obi strip.
This 40th Anniversary Edition of ‘More Specials’ has
been mastered and cut at half-speed by Miles
Showell at Abbey Road Studios using the original
production tapes.
For this edition, the album has been split across 2x
12” vinyl running at 45rpm for optimum audio
quality.
Also included is a bonus 7” single, also cut at half-
speed, which originally came with the initial run of
the album in 1980. Last year The Specials celebrated
a UK Number One with a new album, ‘Encore’ and
concluded a 40th Anniversary World Tour.
The Specials are one of the defining bands of the
late 70’s/early 80’s along with Jerry Dammers iconic
label Two Tone Records. Originally formed in 1977,
as The Coventry Automatics, The Specials
combined Jamaican ska and Rocksteady mixed with
the energy of punk and launching a whole Ska
Revival and helped fellow likeminded bands
Madness, The Beat, The Selecter to release their
first singles. Their debut album ‘Specials’ was
released in October 1979, which has endured over
the years as one of the classic debut albums. By the
time they came to release their second album ‘More
Specials’ in October 1980, the band had already
reached number one in the UK charts with their live
single ‘Too Much Too Young’ and had finished a
sold out UK tour and trips to Europe, North America,
Japan and Australia.
