Welcome to 2 Tone Legacy a special 10-part audio documentary series of the Ska Boom podcast that focuses on the stories behind the songs that contribute to the enduring legacy of 2 Tone music and its ongoing impact on popular culture. In each episode, I'll be joined by Paul Williams, author of "You're Wondering Now: The Specials from Conception to Reunion" and lead singer of UK 2-Tone band The Skapones. Paul is a noted 2 Tone expert and he'll be sharing his memories and insights on all the songs covered in this series.

Someone once said, "The Boiler is a song that everyone really needs to hear at least once. ... After that, it's your call." The Boiler was written by The Bodysnatchers and later recorded by The Special AKA is a first-person narrative of a "date" rape victim. The song is no less powerful and devastating today as it was when it was recorded more than 40 years ago. If you haven’t heard The Boiler, it is a powerful and important piece of music. It is social commentary of the highest caliber that will doubtless disturb but, hopefully also inspire. It is 2 Tone through and through

September 9, 2009: Jackson Square, New Orleans, Louisiana

Judgment was passed out like Halloween candy. Snickering and uneasy laughter was heard above the murmurs that slipped through the crowd. We’d all heard about Taylor Swift. We all knew her name. There was more than enough negative media for any naysayer to latch onto. Her reputation preceded her. She was that girl. Yet it was through all that hate that I became a Swiftie for life.
