Gangsters / The Selecter

~ Release group by The Specials / The Selecter

Annotation

The debut single, self financed by the band (long before indie self-publishing was the every day thing it is now). It did well enough by hitting the top 10, prompting Chrysalis to sign them and the Two Tone label itself.

The Dutch release is interesting primarily because a pressing error resulted in side A actually containing the song 'Banana Split' by Belgian Teen bubblegum pop singer Lio.
