Classic - By: Hoofy, 22 Apr 2010 
Great vinyl by The Specials. A lot of my fav songs on this record which is why i bought it. Gets mein the mood to go out.
One of my favourite albums ever! - By: Rachel Turley, 11 Apr 2010 
My dad got me into The Specials when I was about 10/11 years old.
Now at 17 I think I'm a bigger fan than he is!
This is probably one of the best albums I've ever listened to. I went through a period of time last summer where Ska was all I listened to & believe me, this was on the top of my list of most played album.
This is the kind of album I NEVER get tired of listening to; it makes me think I was bornin the wrong decade for music & makes me wish we had bands like The Specials around today.
Amazing album & totally worth getting if you've just discovered the joys of Ska.
This will wipe that blank expression off your face - By: Richard, 26 Aug 2009 
If anyone owns 'The Best Of The Specials' then you might be thinking that that's enough for me. Well, think again! Because you'll be seriously missing out on the joy of discovering some other real gems, including: 'Do The Dog' & '(Dawning Of A) New Era' (it's the life affirming burst of energy that these two tracks provide), plus the intense build up to 'Too Hot' about Rude Boys carrying guns. Overall, a great album so "do the dog not the donkey" & order yourself a copy now!
Excellent. - By: Mr. A. M. HOGG, 15 Aug 2009 
The Specials at their peak. A good CD at a good price. I might almost go so far as to say "must have".
There are some that say that this music doesn't "travel" or "date" well. I say "poppycock". Do not confuse (for better or for worse) with Madness!
