[sivheedno1]

@paolo3910 yes they did sell out in a sense,many millions of people got to hear ub40 that otherwise wouldnt have,and the band members never got really rich before they parted waves,so the job was well done in my eyes,the word was passed but the dollar wasnt made.

@Alkamii . Fair points dude, I just wish that they had done more of this kind of stuff, though I like Labour of Love for what it is, I feel that we didn't need another Reggae lite band, and the albums after that felt bland. People gotta eat though.

@homerjsinnott The Bass player of UB40 is my good friends cousin & I know first hand that although the album may have sold relatively well, they still didn't make much money from the deal. How many times have we seen that in the music industry? They renegotiated a deal with Island records & with that came a 'new direction' ie a more commercial sound. Ali Campbell, the lead singer had a huge battle with alchoholism & gambling & squandered much of his earnings on such.
