Anybody down with them? One of the first multicultural bands, straight outta Coventry, England. They started out as "The Automatics" in 1977, but they released their debut in 1980 as "The Specials"

Their music style is kinda hard to describe, it's like ska/reggae/punk-rock or something..

Their best song is called "A Message To You Rudy", which is a ska/reggae track.. check the video for it here (plus some more videos):
