    The Specials, More Specials, 1980 on Two-Tone

    Second album from Coventry's own The Specials, with Jerry Dammer, Sir Horace Gentleman, John Bradbury, Dick Cuthell, Roddy Radiation, Lynval Golding, Rico Rodrigues, Neville Staples and Terry Hall. Several members of the Go-Go's join for backing vocals: Belinda Carlisle, Charlotte Caffey, and Jane Wiedlin (who would co-write "Our Lips Are Sealed" with Hall). My copy—via Beverly Coin & Jewelry—is a UK pressing with the sticker advertising the additional 7" single but alas no single. […]

    The Fun Boy Three, The Fun Boy Three, 1982 on Chrysalis

    The Fun Boy Three (Terry Hall, Neville Staple, and Lynval Golding) were a spin-off / outgrowth of The Specials. This was their debut, self-titled album with guests Bananarama on four tracks, including a cover of “It Ain’t What You Do (It’s The Way That You Do it),”

    Also features “The Lunatics (Have Taken Over The Asylum)” which I love. The album cover back side presents the credits like a movie poster for a film shot in glorious stereo FunboyScope: “Gasp, Wonder, and Thrill to the Sound of the 80s.”

    There’s a great BBC documentary—2 Tone The Sound of Coventry—which features lots of interviews with Hall and Staples, though it is more focused on The Specials.

    My copy—via A1 records in NYC—is an early 80s Terre Haute pressing which was sealed, with the original hype sticker.
