The Special AKA

British ska group, successor to [a=The Specials]. After a partial break-up in 1981, The Specials re-grouped with a substantially different lineup as "The Special AKA" from 1982 to 1985.
Not to be confused with "The Special A.K.A.", that [a=The Specials] used on on some releases in their early career - those releases should be entered under [A=The Specials] and ANV'd as appropriate.
