The Selecter : The Complete Recordings 1979-1981 (3LP Set)

The Selecter were one of the key bands of the ska revival in the late 1970s. They were one of the few racially and sexually integrated bands on the scene. Vocalist Pauline Black wrote about sexism, racism, and social issues. Their debut release was the AA side of the Specials single ‘Gangsters’ in the summer of 1979, which just consisted of Neol Davies and John Bradbury (of The Specials) before quickly forming a full band by the end of the year. This 30 track release collects all their recordings made for the BBC, from radio sessions, in concert and various TV appearances collected for the first time.
