They were unfortunately somewhat ghettoised by the whole Two Tone fad (which, with bands like The Selector and the too easily dismissed Madness, was one of the industry's better trends). The Specials though were a definite cut above.

As Lechaosestmoi says, a far better band than The Clash. Making similar points but in a far less irritating and contradictory fashion.
