2-Tone Tour Live in Amsterdam 1980

Morning all.During another trawl through the muebles archives last night i found this 16 track compilation recorded apparently on the 2-tone tour in Amsterdam in 1980. Now i have no idea where i got it from or anything about its origins etc but its a great sounding recording featuring songs from The Specials,The Selecter,The Beat and Madness.Not much else to say but listen,dance and then leave a comment.Thanks very much!

Madness - Live in Milan

greetings listeners.for your listening pleasure today we have this recent italian show from londons own nutty boys.no surprises with the track listing really but its always nice to hear them play 'tarzans nuts' which is included here.it comes from an italian fm source so the sound is very good as youd expect but the dj presenting the show interupts occasionally at the beginning of songs which can be annoying but its a great listen anyway.so now just listen,enjoy and if you like leave a comment.thanks to neil for this show by the way,cheers mate.

The Untouchables - Wild Child

a great album that was one of the first i bought along with dance craze way back sometime last century.i remember seeing the band on top of the pops and thinking i had to have the record.ive scanned some pics from the vinyl version (ive been playing with the scanner today!)and included 2 bonus extended versions of free yourself and whats gone wrong.so play it loud,dance around(i defy you not to dance to the song 'free yourself' )and when you sit down after with a cup of tea leave a comment.thanks!

p.s the track 'i spy for the f.b.i' was produced by the specials jerry dammers.and the album was mixed by alan winstanley who has done a lot of work with madness.just thought id let you know.

Dance Craze - soundtrack

it seems the blog world is going 2-tone crazy at the moment so here i am with my contribution.its the soundtrack to the film of the same name and its fantastic.each song is a classic ,filled with an energy that makes it impossible not to dance to.this is a great rip with all the songs included,none of this no madness here!it was done by someone i know who prefers to remain nameless and hes included nice scans of the covers from the record,cassette and vhs versions.there is also a scan of the front of the dance craze magazine that i got some where else.incidentally if anyone could point me somewhere i could see the whole magazine that would be great.right over to you guys again.put this on,listen,dance around your living room,enjoy and leave a comment.thanks!
