What a record! Ive just finished Horace Panter's book Ska'd for life and he writes about swapping bands for a laugh with Dave Steele of The Beat. Watch The Specials-Do nothing from the same TOTP show and you'll see him masquerading as The Specials bass player complete with cynical fashion statement jumper!

They're good, but nevertheless, I choose Madnesssssss :)
It's just me, or their lead vocalist looks like Adam Ant a bit? XD
