Box set containing first 8 album releases on Two-Tone Records:
Rear of box has 2 errors - "The Boiler" on This Are Two Tone is incorrectly credited to Rico & The Special A.K.A. (The inside sleeves and disc credit that song correctly.) Also "Bright Lights" on The Special AKA 'In The Studio' album is mistitled "Bright Eyes".
"The remastered albums in the box set are:
• Specials
• More Specials
• In The Studio.
All of the above are the 2015 remasters which were used in the double CD versions of each album.
"Dance Craze" and "This Are Two Tone" are new 2020 remasters.
Neither of the Rico albums have been remastered. Nor has Too Much Pressure. Too Much Pressure was released on CD by Captain Mod a few years ago with extra tracks, but it wasn't remastered. Captain Mod also released a digi-pack version of Too Much Pressure but I am pretty sure that was just a standard release". - Jason Weir
