So great to hear this. Wonderful that people are still interested in the music of the late 70s and one of the greatest bands - Le Specials. This came off the album I wore out playing back in 1980.
So fun, The Specials from my generation, and that awesome band The Interrupters that was the fave of my passed friend Kyle Kuznov Dineen, RIP Kyle and also RIP Terry Hall
Horace Panter is one of the all time greatest bassists in music history, and good to see him out and about while we lost the rest. I keep watching the Specials appearance on David Letterman show doing Nite Club with his great bass solo, five star musician!
Their knowledge of these bands and their reverence of it is remarkable. So successful, so talented but so humble - they totally acknowledge the help they got from Tim Armstrong - but also the legacy of bands like The Specials and Madness. Maybe that’s why they visit us in the U.K. so often?
The Ska genre is still alive and kicking, always wondered about the lyrics, message to Rudi. Is this Rudi the Red, the far left wing political person. Any clues?
Rudi=Rude boy. Rudeboys were a Ska lovin' youth sub group, in the same way as Punks, Skins and Mods etc had their music. The name came from Jamaican street culture of the 1960s but this song is about the late 70s revival of Ska fans. This may explain- ua-cam.com/video/bX8USu78E7E/v-deo.html

You are the lucky ones: the Interrupters playing together with the legends, and the audience witnessing that event.

Horace is a fucking gem. He let me hang back stage after a Specials gig in Philly about 10 years ago and was such an awesome host.
Wow. Great video. Legend Horace and legends of the future

rudy is a rudeboy
This ain't ska. It's reggae.
@@augsburgerpunker4330 It couldn't be more obviously ska.

@@acampbell8614 thank you sir. i was unawares
A voir...

Sterling stuff but also shows how damn good The Specials were because their version is WAAAY better no?!
I doubt Terri would've been impressed. I sure as hell wasn't.
👍🏻
Oh dear
No blacks in the band.
🤔🤭🤭🤭
I’m sure if you ask them nicely they will put one in just for you.
All worship at the alter of Ska.. but this just doesn't work.
Horace looks embarrassed.... pretty crappy version.
