UB40 - Collected (Black Vinyl) in details
Early in 1980, UB40 scored their first success with "Food For Thought", reaching high positions in the charts. By the time they released their first album they were already so successful that they had signed off on unemployment benefit, leading to the stamped Signing Off featured on form 40 for the sleeve of their debut album. UB40 Collected captures the different phases of the band in one complete album, from classic hits to later favorites.
The members of UB40 chose their name after a piece of paper most of them were all too familiar with: Unemployment Benefit form 40, in short: UB40. The name was put on posters and the band was promoted even before each member fully understood his instrument. With Present Arms In Dub, they managed to make the first dub album ever to reach the album charts in the U.K., with the poignant songs "One In Ten" and "Don't Slow Down". In 1983 the band launched Labour Of Love, boasting ten cover versions of Jamaican hits, which became a huge worldwide success and the band's first number one album.
Besides original UB40 songs like Food For Thought and Rat In Mi Kitchen, Labour Of Love tracks Red Red Wine, Cherry Oh Baby and Please Don't Make Me Cry, this collection also includes collaborations with Chrissie Hynde on "I Got You Babe" and "Breakfast In Bed", plus Robert Palmer on "I'll be your Baby Tonight". This gatefold 2LP edition is pressed on 180g black vinyl and includes a 4-page booklet with liner notes and photos in a high quality PVC protective sleeve.
