UB40

Post by The Aceman » Sat Feb 09, 2008 1:10 pm

So I decided to purchase "The Very Best of UB40, 1980-2000" from iTunes, and all I can say is wow! What a great mix, I've enjoyed UB40 for years, but only really ever listened to their singles, they really are a great band for those of you who enjoy reggae.

Never heard of them. If you were to pick one song to give as a good representation of the band what would it be?

Likely you have heard them, there most famous song has to be "Red Red Wine"

Yeah UB40 does a lot of covers, including a brilliant cover of "Light My Fire" by the Doors. Other good UB40 covers include: "Can't Help Falling In Love", "I Got You Babe", and "The Way You Do the Things You Do."
