In a recent Spinner Magazine article, Terry Hall, lead singer of everyone’s favorite ska band The Specials, alludes to the possibility of a new album that might be in the works in the er….future. It’s just a rumor for now folks, but a new album from these legendary ska musicians would make my year! According to Hall,
“Nothing has been written…We’ve played around a bit, but we’ve all agreed that if we’re going to make an album, it’s got to an incredibly great album. If we’re up for that, and we think that we have the parts in place, there’s no reason we won’t start recording. I think at this level [we need] to play for a while, like we did before we had a record deal.”
Nothing could be more vague than that – a true politicians answer! Read the entire article on the Spinner site here.
The Specials’ last album, More Specials, was released in 1980 on 2 Tone Records.
