The Specials – 30th Anniversary Tour: Found Tapes

submitted by 1976 on 02/09/17 1

Found Tapes is a new weekly show that highlights some of the rarest, weirdest, and sometimes just really cool videos that people send to us. This week, hitch a ride back in time to Wolverhampton, UK to catch ska legends The Specials' triumphant 30th anniversary gig. The Specials – 30th Anniversary Tour documentary was released back in 2010 to commemorate the string of sold-out, off-the-wall UK dates that the band (featuring original members Terry Hall, Neville Staple, Lynval Golding, Roddy Radiation, Sir Horace Gentleman and John Bradbury, but sans founding songwriter and keyboardist Jerry Dammers) tore through following a surprise appearance on BBC Two's Later... with Jools Holland show. Filmed at the Wolverhampton Civic Hall in front of a manic hometown crowd, the show was the biggest revival story of 2009 and marked the first time that the band had been filmed in concert in over twenty-eight years. Rock along to a hit-heavy set of classic 2 tone tunes, and watch as the pride of Coventry show that the spirit of '77 is alive and kicking. These old rude boys have still got plenty of tricks up their mohair sleeves.
