1980 Singles # 49 The Selecter


1980 was very much the year of Two Tone. It had begun its wave in 1979 before but it really crashed to shore the following year. The Selecter put out an absolutely terrific debut album. They were always slightly lesser lights than Specials, Madness or Dexys, (not a Two Tone band but certainly implicated), but that didn't stop them being any less great. I could have posted either this or Missing Words. Missives of empowerment.
