Gangsters (No.15)
Back To 1979Choose A Different YearNext Video
"Gangsters" was the 1979 debut single by 2Tone/Ska band The Specials.
The Specials music was described at the time as "danceable ska and rocksteady beat with punk's energy and attitude" and we'd say that was a pretty good description.
The single went on to peak at No.6 in the UK Charts in July 1979, and it was announced recently that the band were getting back together for a re-union tour.
