Lemondropkid Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 Shocked to see Terry Hall has passed. Band that defined my school days. Remember hearing Gangsters on John Peel and rushing out to buy it on single on the day it was released. Vinyl 45 from a record shop on the Wembley High Road- happy days. Not one written by him, but seems right this morning- the message and joy of the Specials. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was a council house boy brought up with gypsy families. In the Army I'd go out at night with lads from St Pauls in Bristol, then with a right fucking mixture from the S of I in Warminster, What a bunch we were. RIR, me, Blacks, Indians from Brum, a fucking cracking bunch of lads. Good times !! 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not so much the age though I am younger than them it's the fact that it's final and that era is gone forever. Horrible life sometimes though none of us are here forever.
