The Specials
The Specials - International Jet Set
Forgot I had this. It comes from the album More Specials which came out 25(!) years ago. (Old people). You might think ska-bitty blah when you hear mention of The Specials. Not this song though. I don't know what it is other than excellent. I'm pretty cocksure of myself about this fact. There is kind of a spooky "Ghost Town" vibe going on. It is v. creative. My fave part = the interlude that starts at 2:03.
The Specials have a website.

I would never say ska bitty blah, especially about the Specials. They were about as important as it gets, in the Ska genre, and in music in general. I appreciate that you put them on here David. ps, i've been watching the Office on NBC, have you? I really like it, it's good stuff.Posted by: Rob at April 7, 2005 10:01 AM
