Madness have certainly crafted some great Pop songs but c,mon. Within 2 albums Specials said more about the state of Britain at that time within a well oiled reverent sound that Madness could only dream of.

Specials debut is essential listening even if the genre is not high on your list. It's a superlative album that is still relevant 30 years after release both lyrically and musically.
