The Specials (and others), Festival Against Racism, June 1981

Festival Against Racism, Butts Stadium, June 1981 and my last lot of shots of The Specials taken just before the band imploded. These shots seem a long way away from 1979. The Festival Against Racism also featured The People and The Bureau who I took shots of, and The Reluctant Sterotypes and Hazel O’Conner, who I didn’t. There’s also a band I cant identify which looks like its got John Shipley on gituar.
