A loyal 5FF readers asks: ‘So, is this racist?’ (video)

November 28, 2013 By Kathy Shaidle

Wow, I’m gonna have to say “no” because The Specials can grant themselves nihil obstats in that department — but thanks for sending that in!  They really were, and are, a tremendous live band.

The Concert for Kampuchea was never on my radar when it happened, since it was impossible to see in North America until about 10 years later. Even then, you only saw select performances, like the ones below, and the quality was bad — unlike the clips below and all from this person at YouTube.

Maybe Kurt Waldheim missed his calling as a concert organizer because some of these performances are classics, although the post-Moon Who were not at their very best that day.

Aw, such meanery!!
