Madness

My liking for Jamaican music has been well documented and I have always found the ska style to be very uplifting so it should come as no surprise that I have always had a soft spot for Madness – any band naming themselves after a Prince Buster track have a head start on touching my musical side.

Was pleased to catch them on Friday night playing this new number:



Their early videos always appeared to mix their witty humour with the lyrics to their songs.

What a coincidence! I was going to post one of their videos a week or so ago. I didn't think anyone one would "get it". I was wrong, eh?

rt, I had not thought of them in ages and then they pop up on the tv in such fine form - just had to post it and then one of their old ones.

They really did sound good. The singer looked great, considering how used up so many musicians look by their forties.
