Biography

UB40 have spent the last few years doing what many bands in such an exalted position would do. Having sold 50 million albums and become global superstars, they have spread their wings and diversified.

They have collaborated with Jamaica's dancehall legends and worked with the fathers of reggae. In 2003, they even recorded Swing Low, the anthem for the England rugby team's triumphant World Cup… Read more in Amazon's UB40 Store

Product Description

CD Description

Birmingham's favourite sons, UB40, return with Labour Of Love IV, their first in the series since 1998's Labour of Love III. Covering classics from reggae legends (Delroy Wilson, John Holt, The Melodians) to soul favourites (Smokey Robinson, Sam Cooke), the group enlist former lead singer Ali Campbell's brother Duncan on vocal duties, which ties in with the band's rich and joyous legacy. A welcome return from one of the UK's most illustrious reggae acts. Includes the songs "Tracks Of My Tears", "Man Next Door" and "Close To Me".

By Simmo
Format:Audio CD
I have read some positive and poor reviews of the album. I have been a UB fan since 1980 but decided against buying this cd with Ali gone, and have not seen them live since either. However it is in my cd player and is actually very good. The 1st thing you will notice with the band is that they are playing together as a great band that they always were, but it all sounds real and live. Gone is the electronic synthetic bass and other drum machine sounds of albums since around Promises and Lies, and back is Jim Brown and Earl playing together as a unit(Sly and Robbie!!) The new keyboard player has added a different element to the sound more Ska/roots feel. Duncan is not Ali, and my wife commented that he does not have the edge that makes Ali's voice so distintive. However, Duncan has a sweet tone and a very subtle delivery that really grows on you. I have been converted, the best UB album for a long while and I may even look out for the next shows. Well done boys keep them coming, and Robin may even go back to playin some great solos not seen since Signing Off/P Arms days!

Its not Ali but you can tell its a Campbell, enjoyable album and pretty true to the originals (i have most in various forms from way back when) Well worth the purchase.

If you have the others then why not complete the collection?

Not as good as LOL 2 with the most well known songs on, but still worth having.

Not UB40 without Ali
Got all albums up to now, but I'm not going to bother with this one. Ali was and always will be UB40 for me. Read more

Superb !
As always UB40 come up with the 'goods' with yet another good sound.

Track 3 is awesome.

wicked cd
A great cd. Duncan's voice has a hint of Ali's. In time his confidence will grow and his voice as we have heard from this cd will improve. Read more

A big dissapointment
Sadly, UB40 are finished for me. Having loved most of the material up to 2005 'Who you Fighting for', this is sad for me. Read more
