The Specials, of course, are featured in our Ultimate Genre Guide to 2-Tone and they also adorn the cover! Inside, you'll find archive pieces from Melody Maker and NME on the Specials, the Special AKA, Madness, The Selecter, the Beat, the Bodysnatchers, Bad Manners and fellow travellers Dexys Midnight Runners and Elvis Costello. There's new in-depth reviews, the 40 greatest 2-Tone singles, a guide to the label's collectibles and a fond farewell to Ranking Roger.
