| Description: | THE SELECTER waren eine der Schlüsselbands des Ska-Revivals in den späten 70er Jahren. Sie waren eine der wenigen rassisch und sexuell integrierten Bands in der Szene. Die Sängerin Pauline Black schrieb über Sexismus, Rassismus und soziale Themen. Ihr Debüt war die AA-Seite der Specials-Single "Gangsters" im Sommer 1979, die nur aus Neol Davies und John Bradbury (von The Specials) bestand, bevor sie Ende des Jahres zu einer vollständigen Band wurden. Die Folgesingle "On My Radio" erreichte Platz 6 der britischen Charts. Ihr Debütalbum "Too Much Pressure" wurde im Februar 1980 veröffentlicht und erreichte Platz 5 der britischen Charts, das auch zwei weitere Hitsingles "Three Minute Hero" und "Missing Words" enthielt. - 180G2021 Half-Speed Remaster by Alchemy At Air
