Sadly, my favourite hasn't been listed...
Their first UK '#1 'Too Much Too Young', the lead track off the 'Special AKA Live EP'
The song itself is a track off their first LP which, to be honest, was a dirge in this form...but this live version blows it away...Marvellous!
The rest of the EP was live renditions of old ska favourites...
Anyone with a weak heart and stomach should not listen to 'The Boiler'... :P

I think that's how the thing was known even in those days...the EP title was way too long-winded!

Ghost Town. It just caught the whole mood in Britain at the time.
