Too much pressure

Description

THE SELECTER was one of the key bands of the ska revival in the late 70s. The vocalist Pauline Black wrote about sexism, racism, and social issues. Their first release was the AA side of the "Gangsters" single by the Specials in the summer of 1979, which consisted only of Neol Davies and John Bradbury (from the Specials) before quickly forming a full band by the end of the year. They released their follow-up single "On My Radio" which reached number 6 in the UK charts. Their first album 'Too Much Pressure' was released in February 1980 and reached the fifth spot on the UK charts. The album also included two other successful singles "Three Minute Hero" and "Missing Words".
