I was watching one of the old SNL's from the seventies awhile ago, and they had a band called "The Specials". I really liked they're song (I think it was called "Gangster), so I figured I buy one of their CD's. Has anyone heard of this band? If so, what CD would be a good choice?

Sorry, haven't heard of them Ford. But here's their site:

The Specials

If you go under 'shop', you can find all their CD's. The one with Gangster is 'Blue Plate Special'.

Hope this helps

Try The Specials and More Specials also check out The Beat (or English Beat as you call them in the States) i used to go to the night clubs in Coventry when Ska was really big in the late 70s early 80s
