so lets give this a go shall we?this post is the Specials set from the Olympic closing ceremony concert at London's Hyde Park in 2012 which i went to myself.its a top quality recording taken from an FM broadcast.if you download please leave a comment just so i can see if people are enjoying what im posting.also if you have any requests for re-ups (and i can find the original cd's or files) i will do my best to accomodate your requests.thanks for reading and by the way it feels good to be back
