Description: This band of Birmingham, England, roots rockers launched the Labour of Love cover series to show their devotion to the mid-'60s-to-early-'70s period in Jamaican music, when ska was slowing down to become bass-led rock steady. Soon after that, innovations in the drumming style helped create the next mutation, reggae, but UB40 still can't get enough of that wonderful rock-steady stuff. Since their list of top favorites numbers upwards of 200 titles, this series should last as long as they do. Volumes 1 and 2 spun off huge hits "Red Red Wine," "The Way You Do the Things You Do," and "Here I Am." Volume 3 packs guaranteed boomshots in "Holly Holy" and "Mr. Fix It." Some grouse that this band--the biggest reggae outfit in the world in terms of sales--is ripping off the music of black Jamaican artists. But reggae transcended national borders a long time ago, and UB40 have a stack of thank-you letters from artists they've covered in the past, names such as Honey and Winston Groovy, who were grateful for the recognition--not to mention the publishing fees! --Elena Oumano

Reviews:

ANOTHER FINE CLASSIC!

UB40 returns with the third volume of the classic LABOUR OF LOVE series. Surprisingly the album remains just as enjoyable and unique as the first two. Ali Campbells vocals are still strong and uplifting. The highlights of the album include COME BACK DARLING, HOLLY HOLY, IT'S MY DELIGHT, GOOD AMBITION, CRYING OVER YOU and THE TRAIN IS COMING although this album is consistently very good from beginning to end. Will undoubtedly satisfy any UB40 fan. Highly recommended as this is another gem in their collection.

The first five tracks worth the whole album!

I have to disagree with some of the other reviewers about the sound of this album. It is true to their similar style on previous albums. I find it interesting that UB40 can take songs that have been previously recorded by other artists and make them their own, and with such passion.

Tracks 1-5, 7 and 12 are by far my favorites on this album. If I could only pick one, it would be "Come Back Darling". Buy this album you won't be disappointed.

They did it again

I've got every UB40 album, and I love them all, including this one. I can't believe these guys are still going strong--it must be their music (so chill) that's keeping them together. There's no other music that can chill you out like this music, and at the same time get you so fired up. They are the best, hats off to Ub40.
