My other thread on this has vanished so..

UB40's new album - Google News

Wow, that is interesting news. And that Ali's brother Duncan is replacing him as lead vocals. From what they say, although Duncan says he's not looking to replicate Ali, Duncan has similar vocal range as Ali. It would be very interesting to hear them with Duncan's vocals. I got a feeling it should be very close.

I've heard him and although like we said before, it won't be the same without Ali, his brother is very similar, so it may just be ok and still something meaningful to carry on dancing to. :) ;) I want that new album regardless - it sounds as goose bumpy as ever to me from th ebit they have advertised on tv. :)

I got the new CD of theirs - just playing iot a 2nd time. You know how it sometimes needs a 2nd time around to take it all in, without over-playing. It's the last one with Ali fronting the band, so am so glad I've got it now.

Just sensational imo. :D :clap

I tried to select a couple of tracks from the album, but could only find one and not sounding good on my computer - monitor speakers are too tinny, but also the recording on youtube I think isn't great.

I love the whole album though. I got my son to go to shops and get it. Couldn't believe it, free with newspaper. I don't read tabloids, but was well worth buying just to get their CD.

Not sure how long it's been out, but it is slightly different on a couple of tracks, although still great. They still have their momentum going. :) ;)

If it's nice, do it twice.

Hey, that's great news with getting the CD. Helluva giveaway with the newspaper. Wonder how they managed that?

Hi CoolBreze (& Ria),

Many thanks for your replies / posts ... .. looks like our first post got a bit mashed by reveal codes but, hopefully, it was still able to get the message across ... .. feel free to ask if you have any (printable !!) queries.

Yup, first post did get a bit mashed up there but this second post seems to look ok. Must have been something with settings.

Would you be joining us in the forum or is this a one shot thing?

Hi Again CoolBreze,

Thanks for your further post ... .. and, to answer your query, we'd be honoured to become a regular member ... .. although our role would be more debating that file-swapping !!

Ok Websherriff. I don't want to derail the thread starter's thread much further so I'll just leave you with this:

Re "we'd be honoured to become a regular member"

One user membership account/IP address to one (person) member.

Yep - thread derailed alright.

In membership profile when joining here, they have to click the section that asks if a member of any groups - this person clearly is - the mod of this section needs to see this to check it, as we can't do it.

Hey CoolBreze & Ria,

Only one individual has posted here under this membership and happy to keep it that way ... .. 'sorry' also for derailing Ria's thread - this was not the intention and the aim was simply to let you know about the label's and band's download policy during this pre-release.

Best,

WEB SHERIFF

No problem...just never seen anything like your posts before and am still puzzled by them, but the idea of this thread and many other music threads, is just to enjoy moments - we are very into music and it's like a social time online if you will.

I trust you are happy that nothing untoward is happening here?
