5.0 out of 5 stars the best specials album, March 19, 2004
This review is from: BBC Sessions (Audio CD)
This is a great album. It is not really 'live' it's not recorded before an audience, it's just different takes on their early songs + many cover versions of old ska songs. The only complaint I have about this is that'A Message To Rudi' is not on it. It sounds real good, believe me. In my opinion this is the best Specials album.
