The unparalleled Pauline Black with The Selecter, singing as powerfully as she did when they first started out.
And #PaulineBlack at #RescueRooms in Nottingham last night. This woman is UNSTOPPABLE.
Pauline Black, singer extraordinaire with The Selecter, immaculately dressed in shirt jeans and a dark leather jacket and hat. I'm standing on the right in a long white shirt, black coat and hat.
Pauline Black singing her heart out on stage at The Rescue Rooms in Nottingham, under red lights with a red tambourine in one hand and microphone in the other.
One of the most beautiful people on the planet inside and out. And me, in awe. #PaulineBlack #TwoTone
Off to see one of my all-time heroes, #PaulineBlack and #TheSelecter tonight. Had tickets to see them before and never made it for reasons. Bucket list stuff, this! #TwoTone
I vividly recall having a massive girl crush on #PaulineBlack. In fact I wanted to be her. It didn't occur to my 13/14 year old brain that being Mixed might bring a whole lot of problems with it. She was just the coolest thing I'd ever seen. If you're out there Pauline, sorry about the gushing.

Despite their charts absence, #PaulineBlack and The Selecter have been prolific in the years since the ska revival of 1979-80. Their current tally includes 16 studio albums, plus various live recordings. In 2011, Black won the right to use #TheSelecter as a trademark for touring and recording.

Later at the merch, #PaulineBlack signed it for me. She asked if I had made it and that she liked it. I liked her show! She was born in 1953, dances and performs with enthusiasm and action

We lived in Britain, a country that had hugely benefited from immigration, but curiously had an innate antipathy to the ideas of multiculturalism and diversity. PAULINE BLACK
