The Best Of 2 Tone

LP x 2

CLEAR VINYL

LIMITED EDITION

In 1979 Jerry Dammers from ska band The Specials

launched the cult music label 2 Tone Records, with

 the support of major label Chrysalis. 2 Tone was

most famous for releasing ska and reggae-

influenced music with a punk rock and pop music

overtone, spawned from the 2 Tone music and

cultural movement of the 1970s.

Artwork was central to 2 Tone Records and with the

assistance of Horace Panter and graphic designer

John 'Teflon' Sims, Dammers created the Walt

Jabsco logo which portrays a man in a black suit,

white shirt, black tie, pork pie hat, white socks and

black loafers. The fictional character was based on a

photograph of Peter Tosh, a former member of The

Wailers and came to be the logo that represented

the movement, and the music.

The Best of 2 Tone features 18 tracks, including the

first single from Madness ('The Prince'), the Beat's

classic cover of Smokey Robinson's 'Tears Of A

Clown,' and Bodysnatchers' 'Let's Do Rocksteady,'

plus three more songs by the Selector: 'On My

Radio,' 'Three Minute Hero' and 'Missing Words.
