UB40 are a bit dreary, not much there to get excited about.

22

UB40 are typical of the never-ending tide of utter dross that swept across the bleak and barren vistas of Thatcherā€™s Britain.

UB40 were ideologically opposed to Margaret Thatcher & everything she & her government stood for.

24

True but that didnā€™t make their music any more palatable.

UB40 make my teeth itch.

26

Iā€™m struggling to believe anyone on this forum have there own teeth

Quite liked the early 1st Album UB40 stuff, whereas Level 42 have ALWAYS been uncomprehendingly wank !

I think the general rule is that if you like anything that Chris Evans likes then itā€™s likely to be utter shite - Level 42 and ELO being prime examples.

If I had to choose I would rather have my teeth than my hair. Having both is a bonus. Iā€™m hoping they last until :skull_crossbones:

UB40 are totally pants.

I quite like Madness these days, but used to hate them very much.

37

Signing off and the dub 12 that came with it. Great recordā€¦a few singles after that is as far as I go. Not comparable to level ducking no spirit level 42

LOL, tack a ā€œsadā€ onto that post and its a Trump tweet :smile:

UB40 were mediocre, yep.
Madness donā€™t belong in this thread :scream_cat:
