Terry Hall, Neille Staples and Lynval Golding had flown the Specials coop but continued their good work. They were still highly politically orientated, deeply angry about what was going on and righteously so. It was great to have their chart presence for a couple of years. They demanded to be played on the radio. To my mnd their best songles were 1981's The Lunatics (Have Taken Over the Asylum) and 1983's Tunnel of Love. But their 1982 crop of 45 was hardly shabby.
