Various Artists - Two Tone The Albums

Wytwórnia Two Tone Records powstała w 1979 roku z inicjatywy założyciela zespołu The Specials, Jerry'ego Dammersa. Label przyczynił się do zainicjowania młodzieżowego ruchu, a także do sukcesu uznanych artystów i singli, w tym wspomnianych The Specials i ich kluczowego "Gangsters" czy znanych ze szczytu brytyjskiej listy przebojów "Too Much Too Young" i "Ghost Town". Wytwórnia pomogła w karierze Madness z "The Prince", The Beat z "Tears of A Clown", The Selecter z "On My Radio" oraz The Bodysnatchers z "Let's Do Rocksteady".
Two Tone "The Albums" to przygotowany z okazji 40-lecia zestaw 8 płyt CD zawierający pierwszych osiem płyt, które ukazały się w barwach wytwórni. Znajdziemy tu tytuły takich zespołów jak "The Specials", "The Selecter" i "Rico", jak również poszukiwany przez fanów koncertowy album "Dance Craze" oraz wydawnictwo "This Are Two Tone" z niealbumowymi nagraniami.
