Spain’s Costa Del Sol – home of sun, sex and money.  Playground and safe haven for some of Britain’s toughest gangstas.  For ten long years this was a sun-kissed sanctuary for British prison cells.  A legal loophole made them untouchable.  As they bought up luxury villas and made millions.  Politicians were powerful, detectives frustrated.  With their hands tied the police turned to a fearless British TV journalist.  Britain’s Underworld: Costa Del Crime

What do you think when you hear the word Skinhead?  Violence, intolerance, hatred?  This image was born in the 1970s when this youth-driven subculture earned a reputation for trouble on the streets and terraces, and a toxic association with racism.  But that’s not how it started.  The Story of Skinheads with Don Letts, BBC 2018

 

Jamaican recording artists were also pleased by this new-found interest.  So much so, a whole new genre was born out of ska: skinhead reggae.  ibid.  

 

In Britain back then racism was a way of life.  ibid.

 

This dark side obviously made for great headlines, was further intensified by the publication of Richard Allen’s book Skinhead in 1970.  ibid.

 

The Sham ’69 story is a real tragedy.  ibid.

 

There was another movement waiting in the wings to pick up the skinhead slack, good and bad … This was 2-Tone.  ibid.

 

The coming decade would see yet another incarnation of Skinhead, and one that confused the hell out of me: it was harder, it was tougher, and I couldn’t see or hear any connection to Jamaica … This very white and violent incarnation of Skinhead … I couldn’t relate to Oi!  ibid.
