Terry Hall of The Specials - RIP

Such awful news.

RIP. I was only listening to them over the weekend .

Went to the 30th anniversary tour few years back was a great night rip.

shocking news and so young.

Loved the specials.

RIP M8

How's Lenny the Lion taken it?

If they put anything on tv a concert or anything a tribute sort of thing can someone ttt thanks, just had a quick look through some channels cant see anything.

Saw them on the 2 Tone Tour in 1979 supported by Madness and Selecter. First night at Newcastle on the 30th Anniversary Tour was emotional and fantastic, then Edinburgh and Glasgow shows too.
Gone Much Too Young - RIP Terry

A sad day for people who grew up with The Specials..

Never saw them first time round but got to see them at the Manchester Apollo in 2011 and they were everything i hoped live.... were brilliant

RIP Terry

Yep ... best time for music was late '70s early '80s... 2 Tone was great

Pancreatic cancer. So many people now seem to be dying shortly after a cancer diagnosis.

bad week for music , also lost martin duffy ( felt, primal scream, charlatans ) and iain templeton ( shack and la's)

no way back from cancer of the pancreas

He also did some good songs with the Fun Boy Three (The Lunatics Have Taken Over The Asylum) and The Colourfield (Thinking Of You). RIP
