I'll admit I wasn't much of a Specials fan, but I loved Fun Boy Three

RIP

Yet another one gone.

The Specials probably did more to integrate black and white youth than any other band.

Inspirational. Hearing this coming banging out of your radio at 16.

Martin Duffy has passed away as well. He was the keyboard player in Felt and Primal Scream. He did some stuff with Oasis and The Charlatans as well.

I see Terry Hall was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in October but didn’t last long at all.

It was in his liver by the time he got diagnosed.

I didn’t realise he was sexually abused by his teacher at age 14. Seems it affected his mental health for much of his life.

There are some evil **** in this world.
