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 UB 40 Store

4.0 out of 5 stars Worth it for the title track alone, July 23, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Rat in the Kitchen (Audio CD)

The title track is wonderful -- an absolutely great recording. UB 40 has never been better and Herb Alpert (remember him? ) does a great solo on this track (hasn't lost his chops yet!). If you're a UB40 fan, you won't be disappointed with this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hear the band at their Peak, May 1, 2002

Jason L Jones (Durham, NC United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Rat in the Kitchen (Audio CD)

Had to jump in when I saw this was not a 5-star rated CD...

This CD finds the band in 1986 at the peak of their song-writing and production talents. Blending a totally unique meld of Reggae meets dub overlaid with wonderful melodies, this CD is the one to have if you only buy one.

The title track and Sing our own Song are eternal faves, but other songs like "Looking down at my reflection" and "I don't like the words" make this a can't miss CD.

This review is from: Rat in the Kitchen (Audio CD)

It can't get much better than this. UB40 at their absolute best. I love the lyrics on this album. I still find myself playing it more than 20 years later. If you are a fan in the slightest, you owe it to yourself to get this disc.
