The first 2 tracks are rather funky, and still very political and then you get the music which every one would associate with Terry Hall, Two tone Ska with a political message, also their is a cover of The lunatics are taking over the Asylum with a new twist . This is a great album, and if thats not enough, it come with another disc of the Specials live.😊

Ok I have quite an obsessive 2 Tone era music collection. Ghost Town was my first decent 7" purchase. Encore has some great new tracks. Current themes and issues relevant to today. They at least tap into my concerns. Tory not my story. Some great SKA sounds as well as continued Musak experimentation reminiscent than More Specials. I already prefer this to In The Studio. Gutted that my local gig sold out. Old and new go to it!

Wow, How did I miss this one when it was released. Thankfully I have been enlightened. A wonderful collection of old and new songs from one off the most gifted groups from the last 50 years. Terry Hall what a man, long may he live on in our memories. If you don't enjoy these tracks you must be dead from the neck up.

Thoughtful and incisive songwriting and cool grooves. A great product of cultures and heritages living together Live album records wonderful gig atmosphere. Good buy for the fans and a good flavour for newly acquainted.

Normal cd price. Great new tracks on the album and a disc of live versions of their 70's and 80's classics. It was worth about 40 years of The Specials for this release. Still doing well in the charts and of course The Specials only Number 1 album in the official albums chart.
