Retro Saturday: The Specials

A return to the Retro Saturday fold for Mr Terry Hall (a previous appearance here as part of Terry, Blair & Anouchka), with the band which made him famous: The Specials!

Lots and lots of bands have reformed over the past couple of years, but I'm actually quite excited about the return of The Specials who are reforming to tour in 2009. They were always a very sharp live outfit, as this Old Grey Whistle Test performance of "Too Much Too Young" would verify: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=nxHcx7FO8nI

I had considered going to see them live, however I should have been quicker off the mark as their show at my local-ish venue is now sold out. D'oh!
