The Selecter: At The BBC (The Complete Recordings 1979-1981) [Blu-ray]

The Selecter were pioneers of the ska revival in the late 1970s and one of the few multicultural bands to perform on the BBC at that time. Despite releasing only two albums before their first breakup, their aesthetic influenced later bands such as No Doubt and Blur, while singer Pauline Black’s politically charged lyrics inspired activists in 1980s Britain.

Between 1979 and 1981, the band recorded several BBC radio sessions for John Peel and Mike Read, played numerous concerts, and appeared on TV shows such as *The Old Grey Whistle Test* and *Top of the Pops*. These recordings are collected here for the first time—including a new essay by Melody Maker journalist Simon Price as well as new band interviews in the booklet.

• Complete BBC recordings from 1979–1981, compiled for the first time
• New essay by Simon Price + new interviews with the band in the booklet
• Blu-ray exclusive to the CD edition, featuring Top of the Pops performances, among other content
