Whatever the UK's equivalent to the US Library Of Congress is (National Archives, perhaps?), these Peel sessions need to be immortalized there 'cuz they are national treasures for the UK as they documented an era/eras in western popular music, how that music was propagated and consumed and how it shaped/reshaped the wider culture over the decades of late 20th and into the 21st Centuries (and especially for hearing Peel's voice in the intervals between the outros and intros)!
All of these Peel Sessions are National Treasures! Thanx! For the great feedback! & comments! About Bands like this!
You're absolutely right. Music shape people's life through culture, indeed. So in a way, it's part of history. You can take the heat of a decade through its music alone. (sorry for the bad writing, english is not my native language)
If anyone has the money and resources to take over John Peel's amazing collection as well as the all-important recordings of sessions for his shows, it is perhaps the British Library -
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Library_Sound_Archive
oh yes. And the quality of these sessions is on average very high (to me, for example, Joy Division's Peel Sessions are among the best things they recorded)
@@HermanWaldorf It's amazing how consistently great the Peel Sessions are, given they were not engineered by "inside" people of this or that movement but by BBC staff (so I believe). They are some of the best recordings around, at least of the punk/post-punk era which is arguably one of the most important in both music history and in terms of Peel's career and influence (and because it's "my" era ;).
This Peeley session was the first time I ever heard of the Specials. What a breath of fresh air they were. RIP Terry and Peeley ❤.
The Specials have to be one of the best groups EVER in the history of music.... SKA SKA SKA
they were shit
They seemed brilliant and relevant then and even more so now. Take those Concrete Jungle lyrics - 22 years on, wtf has changed? Kids like my son still have to run from the knife and the law... The difference is that in the late 70s and 80s there were so many fantastic bands to express all that in incredible, danceable, memorable music. And now???
They've progressed to rap.
42 years on would be more accurate
The Specials and John Peel, bloody excellent. Can't go wrong. Holy cow they played Haverfordwest when I was a schoolie.
peel deserves an award
RIP Terry Hall
My dad gave me the Selecter/Specials Ep. Thanks dad. Special lessons of youth with The Specials. lol.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO !! RIP Terry ;-(
Probably one of the best Peel sessions, god bless Terry and John
The fact that Peel Sessions always show up in the recommended list.
Thank you for the lot of work you put into posting all the videos from Peel Sessions !!!
You're welcome
Vibracobra23 Redux *INDEED!!!* Thank You for this "Bootleg LP!" 😝
thank you also these are brilliant I listen to them daily ;)
My pleasure
Cannot be praised too highly.
This Is An " Important Peel Session " In That It Was Recorded Within Just A Couple Of Months Or So Before The Whole 2 Tone / Ska Movement " Absolutely Exploded " And In So Doing Brought About " Something Of A " Musical Big Bang Scenario " With Other " Well Known Key Musical Players " Forming And Developing Accordingly " !!! From Adrian Browne 1965
Classic, pure classic.
Ah yes, the magical chants of 'Your gonna get your fuckin' 'ed kicked in'. The soundtrack of the 70's.
very good music thankyou for posting all this good stuff bravo. ;)
Brilliant lads
Thanks for the uploads friend
Wasn't there a ska scene in England in the 60's? Bands like the Specials,Madness, The Selector were part of a revival infused with the energy of punk....This review and the Tom Waits one are putting you into new heights....Nicely done Stripy!!
it was a UK revival of sixties Jamaican ska..
@@michielbrouwer3121 British mods listened to some Jamaican ska in the early 60's, alongside other styles of music. The hard mods and skinheads evolved a few years later from the mods, they listened to rocksteady and reggae.
Mods were around in 64 to 66 peak years. Listened to West *Indian , stax label ,Tamla Motown. West London scene kept it going into the 70s
SPECIALS THE PEEL SESSION (Strange Fruit SFPS 018) (12" only) 17 4 wks
Much slower version of Too Much Too Young than the record. Prefer this actually.
Slower than the single version? It's about the same as on the album.
More guitar up front in the mix.
More guitar up front in the mix.
Wow what a great version of Gangsters
Theres just something about the Specials .... apt name :)
Good stuff

Presumably recorded before the debut album? It has to be said Elvis Costello did a brilliant job on that.
Everytime I need a bite of a peach ... I J. Peel! What a Special Session indeed! The one theses guys did for John Peel in 1980 is a 🍑 too and that Sess-ch' will take you on A Sea Cruise...🤔
