I was comparing it to Love Hate which is, of course, the previous decade
The great Terry Hall
Ah no.
Fuck
Just going to throw the he’s gone to the Ghost town quip out there before someone else does. RIP
Aged 63 after a short illness
Surely it would be that he’s Too Much Too Young?
Genuinely too, only 63, hadn’t heard he was sick. A very funny fucker as well as a great singer/presence.
Gangsters is an absolute classic
Rat Race, Stereotype, Friday night and Saturday morning. Great band.
RIP
I was lucky enough to see the Specials (minus Jerry Dammers) in the Olympia when they did a reunion tour about 14 or 15 years ago. Great show.
Shit. Mick Jagger ruined her.
Stop your messing around.
RIP
Terrible news about Terry Hall. A marvellous front man and songwriter. His work with The Specials since they reformed in 2009 has been hugely impressive.
He had a hard life, battled many demons. Someone I truly admired, I am very sad about his passing.
63 only. FFS.
Only a kid when the band started. Still a teenager when they recorded Gangsters
