The Specials / Glasgow Revisited 28/04/09

For those of you who attended any of The Specials gigs during the 30th anniversary tour 2009 you should enjoy the review and pictures below as much as you enjoyed the gig I hope?

The venue was full to capacity - there were skinheads, Harrington jackets, Fred Perrys and shiny doc marten boots everywhere. The crowd were a mixed bunch, mostly men and women in their mid forties but there were many youngsters who weren’t even born 30 years ago when two-tone started. The DJ was playing some good old ska, getting the crowd even more in the mood than they already were....

Flipron feat. Neville Staple / The Comet Returns

Live & Direct! This is the promo for the new Flipron single featuring the legend that is Neville Staple. A twangy guitar off beat spaghetti-ska number with a comet theme that is available for download on 10th September. Neville, you are a gentleman! From the forthcoming album on Tiny Dog records 'Firework Shoes', produced by Rat Scabies & mixed by David M. Allen.

Made by Paul Collins at Goanna Films with Josh Randall & assistance from Adam & CJ. Huge thanks also to the people at 2-tone Central in Coventry for giving us complete freedom to do what we like in & around the venue where we shot the performances. Specials scholars will know who the legendary gentleman is blowing smoke into the camera at 2.59. A free promo CD of the tune for the first person to identify him!

Guitarists & gearheads who are interested, on both the audio & video that's a Peerless Gigmaster SC with handmade Creamery Sonic Six pickups fitted for pure clean twangy tone, going through a rare Dickinson 45w head & a custom cab.
