First released in 1980, the Selector's debut album Too Much Pressure did much to define the revivalist, punk-era ska sound of Two-Tone Records. Listening back 41 years on from its initial release, the album remains a hugely vibrant and exciting set. Its' genius lies not only in its then surprising repurposing of the Jamaican sound of Ska, but also in its punky attitude, subtle use of dub-style effects and relentlessly high energy levels. The album, which is here presented in audiophile-friendly remastered audio with a bonus seven-inch single, is packed full of classics, with our highlights including 'On My Radio', 'Black and Blue', the righteous title track and a dub-wise, party-starting cover of Monty Norman's iconic James Bond theme.
