UB40 – Labour of Love (Limited Edition Blue Vinyl)
Released in 1983, Labour of Love marked UB40’s first album to top the UK charts, capping off a period of success that had seen their previous three albums land in the Top 5 and eight singles break into the UK Top 40. This landmark album, which came hot on the heels of their chart-topping cover of Neil Diamond’s “Red Red Wine,” was UB40’s first full collection of cover versions.
Labour of Love didn’t just make waves upon release; it also generated a series of hits, including “Please Don’t Make Me Cry” (UK No.10), “Many Rivers to Cross” (UK No.16), and “Cherry Oh Baby” (UK No.12). Its influence extended beyond its initial release, spawning four sequels: Labour of Love II (1989), Labour of Love III (1998), Labour of Love IV (2010), and A Real Labour of Love (2018), the latter credited to UB40 Featuring Ali, Astro & Mickey.
As a cornerstone of British reggae, Labour of Love stands as a testament to UB40’s impact on the genre. This classic album returns to vinyl in an exclusive blue pressing, celebrating its enduring legacy and contribution to British music history.
