the specials brought so much fun to the world, through lyrics mostly about misery, while being one of the most uplifting acts you could ever hope to see, RIP Terry Hall, the only voice that could pull that impossible task off so well xx
2022. Sadly sir Terry Hall has just passed away. Tragic news as I grew up listening to two tone /ska. And loved every minute of it. Massive thanks for all the years of timeless and unforgettable classic tunes the specials provided us with. God bless Terry Hall. Gone But Never Forgotten. ✝️💔✝️⬜️⬛️⬜️⬛️ ⬛️⬜️⬛️⬜️
@@alejoromero Useless comment. There were definitely camcorders at that time. Just because your family couldn't afford one didn't mean they didn't exist at that time.

" MENTALITY OF A HOUSE BRICK" NICE ONE Mr.HALL💪🇬🇧 THIS HAS TO BE MY FAVE RAVE SINGLE OF 1980 👍 I WAS 15 IN 79 WHEN IBOUGHT THEIR 1st ALBUM......ABIT OF AN AWAKENING ...😉GOT BANNED FROM SCHOOL PHOTO FOR WEARING A BLACK/WHITE CHEQUERED JUMPER , I WAS SO CHUFFED ( PLEASED) WITH MYSELF FOR MAKING A STATEMENT.THANKS TERRY & CO FOR MAKING A DIFFERENCE.THE MOST BEAUTIFUL EYE LASHES GOES TO TERRY HALL😘🇬🇧
This is what music is all about. Thank you Specials and especially Terry. Lucky to see them a few times, with non stop dancing. Great memories. Boss songs.
Neville, Terry and co in there element. Quality music at a time when times were hard!! You lot don’t know how easy you have it today. RIP The Specials. Great music that helped me to focus on life in the 80s.,
Used to be a small Ska club near me after i left high school,it was pure magic.Just the memory of all those people dressed alike coming up over the hill down to this little town hall,all like minded people,place was buzzing!It was just brilliant!
Los que vivimos esta época y el ska de The specials, Madness, bad Manners, The beat etc nos lo llevamos a la tumba. British ska. La banda sonora de mi vida. Gracias.
WoW i love this..i was only 12 @the time & had a crew cut..my mam went bursurk!i got suspended from School for wearing my GRANDADs braces above my school shirt cos i was presenting a project about the WW2 cos my GRANDAD served then in Nrth AFRICA & then in ITALY! In a way i still think i`m right cos i looked smart..!
In a business full of weirdos, Terry remains the most delightfully odd looking fellow that I know of. Always looks like he's wearing eye makeup to further accentuate his uniquely pointy and angular face. Pretty sure he wasn't though
Brilliant 👍 " we sold 12 copies in holland" as usual Europe were so far behind the ska scene, Coventry (concrete jungle) real feeling from a great band
I was there that day, seeing it now, is Jerry saying "leave the fans alone" or "leave the fence alone" ? This is one festival-day I will never forget. Right after the Specials, the J.Geilsband tore the place down, and the Jam sent us all back home.
Hola Leo! ~la banda deja de tocar~ -Jerry: Nos gustaria continuar, no estamos haciendo esto por gusto... -Terry: sólo quédense atrás! Esa forma de pensar es decadente (mente hueca) y no se lo piensan 2 veces para abollar esos tubos, así que dejen la cerca en paz, no vale la pena... Ahora, vamos a continuar en este "feliz" evento... ~~ Ehm, y eso fue lo que pasó. Saludos 👋🏻
@@JoeRivermanSongwriter yeah think he started in the wrong key... Roddy is brilliant but this does happen quite a lot! :) especially on Rat Race and Concrete Jungle which he also wrote.
See, THIS is what live music is all about. What a band. RIP Terry. A proper legend.
Not wrong mate best live band I ever seen
I'm shedding tears watching this clip we're going to miss you very much Terry very inspiring
❤💣 for ever !! R.I.P. Terry We always love you
truth. not to forget jOhn. R.I.P.

"what you filming". History Mr Hall, one of if not the best SKA band ever.. So thanks to the person holding the camcorder 👍
That was a film camera, in 1980 there were no camcorders. Useless information.
@@alejoromero There were camcorders -- but anyway, it was a film camera
@@alejoromero there was absolutely camcorders and what you're saying is completely beside the point. so much for useless information.
@@alejoromero Useless comment. There were definitely camcorders at that time. Just because your family couldn't afford one didn't mean they didn't exist at that time.
@@robsmith7664 ha ha 😂 👌👌❤️
Best SKA band ever. Still sounds sooooooo good in 2019. Timeless music. The 80s was a golden era for SKA.
Late 70's --->
The Specials should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
WELL DESERVED 2 TONE SHOULD BE IN THE ROCK AND ROLL HOF 👍
They're too good for that shitty institution
Meanwhile, Dolly Parton, Eminem and Lionel Richie are among this year's nominees. Go figure, eh?
@@duffbaker9554 let them have it...the real thing, the real winner, is in the hearts & minds, can never be erased nor given even as a tangible award...but shall never go away, always revered.......... sadly cliff richard is one of those c&%nts too :(
No, they should not be. They are better than that. HOF is for Dolly Parton, Beastie Boys, Janet Jackson et al.....yuck.
It's funny when hes says "we're gonna continue now on this happy event"
3 seconds after going at the cameraman: "what you filming" 😂😂
"they've got the mentality of a house brick", love it

I got sent home from school for wearing black n white shoes..Bought back the memory reading your experience of those times..Best days..
Glad I got to meet you live. Rest in Peace Terry (1959-2022) too young 😪🙏
When I’m pushing up daisies I will know that I lived through the ska and loved every minute of it
This is what music is all about. Thank you Specials and especially Terry. Lucky to see them a few times, with non stop dancing. Great memories. Boss songs.
RIP to one the godfathers of SKA 🏁🖤
Hardly a godgather. This was ska revival.
RIP Terry Hall 🙏
The specials were one of my favourite bands back in the 80 's
Many memories punctuated by The Specials in my younger days! RIP Terry
Brilliant One of the best live bands of the 80s RIP Terry Hall
Don't forget John Bradbury, fearsome drummer, God bless them both.
They’re amazing performers!
The frustration on Terry's face when that huge feedback noise hits is phenomenal! lol
haha kurt cobain would have screamed in harmony! anyway r.i.p. Terry from warwick near cov
Must admit I giggled at that mate.
Neville, Terry and co in there element. Quality music at a time when times were hard!! You lot don’t know how easy you have it today. RIP The Specials. Great music that helped me to focus on life in the 80s.,
00:02 Too Hot
01:12 Rat Race
04:17 Too Much Too Young
So glad I was around at the time, best ever era for music
Fabulous band , my god what a gorgeous looking man Terry Hall is ❤️
All pretty hot looking fellas !!
The guitar on this version of rat race is amazing. My all time favorite specials song.
Absolutely bloody awesome !!! Oh , what a band ! Miss ya Terry xxx
John Bradbury absolutely killing it on the kit in this one.
He is a brilliant drummer
@@melgrant7404 Was.
@@brendanm6921 I was using the present tense in relation to the video I'm watching at the time. I know he's gone. Sadly.
He was perfect for the specials with his style RIP John Bradbury
Never gets old! Luv em always.
No a political flag in sight. THAT'S MY GENERATION, PROUD GEN X

Bradbury was on fire!
They all were, firing on all cylinders. There definitely were no slackers in that band..
This takes me back. Thanks Terry Hall RIP
Brilliant terry pure genius
Music is Medicine
Just watching Chet Baker in Holland now a this..
Danka.. thanks for sharing

well said mr. torres RIP Mr Terry
I see these in Southend 1979 at the cliffs pavilion and the floor fell in and we just kept dancing and they kept singing never forget it
wat a band. especially wen they're live
Rest in peace Terry Hall, may the angels 😇 🙏 fly with you.
rip terry.... hope you in a better place now. you will be dearly missed.....
The coolest concert ever
Neville,, Terry and the boys best 2tone band
How good is Terry? My God.
He cared alot.
Terry was the man. For him to get them to stop trying to move the gate, that's being a badass without being a badass
RIP Rude Boy 😢🏁
there is a Specials and Madness music night in Liverpool on 20th Jan - be good dance off
My 16 year old sound. Sadly time moves on if tastes don't
My 15 year old sound
RIP TERRY HALL 😢🖤
Brilliant 👍 " we sold 12 copies in holland" as usual Europe were so far behind the ska scene, Coventry (concrete jungle) real feeling from a great band
Greatest sounds ever
Unbelievable Terry Hall class
I was there that day, seeing it now, is Jerry saying "leave the fans alone" or "leave the fence alone" ? This is one festival-day I will never forget. Right after the Specials, the J.Geilsband tore the place down, and the Jam sent us all back home.
Fence
FAB.
Smashing,thanks
The Best 👌 👍 80s
Terry sounding so Cov! Legendary frontman, Socialist and anti-racist. RIP.
ごめん.. やっぱラットレースが一番好きだわ
Pure English ska masterpiece
Classic...!
RIP Terry
concern for your adoring fans sigh @ times gone by...
R.I.P. Terry
RIP Terry!!
Terry Hall 4 ever!
❤❤❤
Pisses me off how little the crowd is into it
RIP Terry.
WAT YA FILMIN'
Love tez
what a song...got one art o level....did f$k all for me
Who does this these days? Pure, authentic and so, so cool. These days, only the bluegrass guys are willing to sing and play in the raw like this.
2021
❤️
かっこえーなー！goooood!!!!!!
Rip🙏
Terry could be ruthless with his dry, dead pan, very British wit.
rip terry hall
Where can I find the complete film of this festival?
Alguien que hable español puede traducir que pasa en esa pelea? Y que es lo que dice Terry hall?
Hola Leo!

Ehm, y eso fue lo que pasó.
Saludos 👋🏻
2Tone 4eva!
Only the homies up front r for real
Right!!
What is the first song?
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
would go see this over anything now....goes without saying . ...the specials terry hall....legends..
1980...was the shit.....
I think The Jam were on the same bill
U lucky lucky peaple U .
@ HASHTAG BE NICE
Wat een leugen, die tekst bij de video. The Specials zetten helemaal niet aan om over de hekkens te klimmen, integendeel zelfs 😞
Did this guy die in 2016 and David Bowie..@same time.
No!!!
"This guy" Terry Hall isn't dead.
@@sonsterlad3326 I think she's referring to drummer John Bradbury who died late 2015.
This guy there's like 6 people on stage
sorry to say he has just died r.i.p. the great terry hall
Less of the 'tude Terry !
Ooh. Questionable guitar solo. Made me sound good. Haha.
He wrote the song!
@@alcoholidaysUK I know.
@@JoeRivermanSongwriter yeah think he started in the wrong key... Roddy is brilliant but this does happen quite a lot! :) especially on Rat Race and Concrete Jungle which he also wrote.
While Roddy radiation is an accomplished guitar player, his playing was below standard.
This remind me of a ska version of Greenday with way more social commentary
RIP Terry Hall
