Available for over a year

The bassist of 2 Tone group The Specials says the death of drummer John 'Brad' Bradbury has left the band's future unclear. Bradbury, who died aged 62, helped produce the Special AKA's 'Free Nelson Mandela', after the original lineup disbanded. He was also an integral part of the Specials re-forming in 2008. Bassist Horace Panter said: "Brad was like the signature sound of The Specials... so I don't honestly don't know what's going to happen." "There were four of us left out of the original seven, there are only three now... once the dust has settled on all this, there are some practical issues to be discussed".
