RARE/2HAND VINYL LP ON DEP INTERNATIONAL 1983

DEP LP DEP 5 made in UK.

Vinyl VG+. Cover VG+.

Named after the unemployment form in England, UB40 was never the most creative or talented group of musicians. However, what they lacked in talent they made up for with an uplifting spirit and genuine affection for reggae music. This is never more apparent than on their breakthrough album, Labour of Love, in which they cover the songs of their heroes. They try to recapture the spirit of early reggae by singing songs originally released before the international success of Bob Marley. They manage to inject their own exuberance into every song; for example, they transform Jimmy Cliff's mournful "Many Rivers to Cross" into an uplifting song of empowerment.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UB40
