2 Tone Records label discography

2 Tone Records was the brainchild of Jerry Dammers, driving force behind the label's mainstay act, The Specials. Formed in Coventry in 1978, The labels' acts created a national interest in the revival of Jamaican ska music from the early and mid-sixties. The only band who weren't from the Midlands, Madness, released their first single on the label, a tribute to Prince Buster fittingly called ''The Prince''. Whilst they and The Beat left the label after one single each, Dammers' Specials found considerable success culminating in two UK number ones with the classic singles ''Too Much Too Young'' and ''Ghost Town''.
