Terry Hall Of The Specials In A 1979 British Interview
As a musician, I tend to be highly influenced and inspired by alot of things or people for that matter in many ways, but I'd be kidding myself if I said that Terry Hall isn't 1ne of them.
Now for those who has not have the slightest idea who he is, he was (and still is) the lead singer of England's classic top premiere mod-2tone ska band (not 2 mention that their in my top 10 favorite bands) The Specials. They blasted on the scene back in 1979 with their smash hit "Gansters" which ruled the airwaves in england @ that time. Hall had a span of hits with the band until 1981 when he left with 2 other members from the specials (Lynval Golding & Neville Staples) to form the band "Fun Boy 3". Then in 1985,he left Fun Boy 3 to form a new band enititled "The Colourfield". I'm not honestly not 2oo much of a Fun Boy Three or The Colourfield fan as much as I am a Specials fan, Love All Groups Either Way...Up above is a video of a young Terry Hall back in his "Specials" days in 1979 discussing the group's formation & success..Ch-Ch-Check It Out!...
