The Specials Family - 'When The Lights Go Out' tribute to Terry Hall & John Bradbury

 


A planned brand new single paying tribute to the late great Terry Hall & John Bradbury received its world exclusive first radio airplay last week on the Trish Adudu Show on BBC Radio CWR. 

And “When A Light Goes Out” is an impressive tune indeed with a smoothly flowing & infectious reggae/ska rhythm underpinning soulful & uplifting vocals from Lynval Golding. 

Billed as The Specials Family, the recording also features Horace Panter & the rest of The Specials’ line-up from the last few years, Steve Craddock, Nikolaj Torn Larsen, Hannah Hu, Tim Smart & Kenrick Rowe. 

“When A Light Goes Out” looks set for an official release in May backed by a Roger Rivas dub of the tune & is a top notch tribute indeed to Terry & Brad! A recording of the single’s broadcast on BBC Radio CWR has already notched up almost 10,000 streams on YouTube! You can listen to it here…
