Selections run from 1980 to 2003, omitting anything from after the band split into two groups. There's a few b-sides and rarities like the vocal cut of Sufferin' by Nya & Natty, Astro chant One A Penny & some Mikey Dread dubs.

While Puppascal comes from Paris & I Newcastle, we are both the same age... the UB40 generation; me in more ways than one ha! Formative sounds from our early youth. So it was a real joy to both of us doing this session. Plenty good old left wing political songs and nuff hit song. Too many big tunes to play them all here but we try our best seen 😂 Thanks Puppa for the French edition cover pics & gig ticket. That stageshow must've been fya!

 

What's your favorite UB40 song anyone??
