    Ali Campbell has such an iconic voice. I grew up listening to UB40 and I love their music just as much today as I did back then. Their music will always stand the test of time.
    Their music holds very special memories for me throughout my life.
    Such a shame that the group don't all perform together.

      My wish as well. But now the brother has a younger lead singer and I don"t think they'd get tigether again. But at least as brothers Ali, Robin and Duncan should reconciliate. I love both bands. One band has the music, Ali has the Voice.

    I have loved UB40 and Alis voice since I first heard their music when I was 9 😄 seen them live 8 times....last 2 concerts were Ali & Astro. Still gutted about the split, but I'm loyal to Ali, he IS the voice of UB40, and the rest would be nowhere without him. ❤💛💚
    Alis voice + reggae music have always been my favourite, literally every day I listen to something UB40 or just Ali on his own.
    I'd love Ali to come back to Glasgow, it's been too long! ❤
    .....I'd be so mad if I bought UB40 tickets and it was the other lot, with no Ali there.....I'd honestly walk out, no one can fill his shoes.

      Have you ever considered where Ali might be if it wasn't for his 'brothers'? By that I mean the whole band. Not being arsey. Genuine question. It's just all I see is Ali wanted full control. He didn't get it. He left, waiting for them to fold as he, like everyone, thought they couldn't survive without him. He's partially right. They HAVE survived...but never been the same. And when they replaced Ali with Duncan was seen as the ultimate betrayal by Ali. But...HE left the group. I believe he planned on reforming with the members he liked, minus the management. But, the original band didn't split leaving him on his own. I mean, he started solo. That did not work out at all. So then he steals the name UB40 claiming it belongs to him as it's his voice?? Doesn't work like that at all. How legally he's getting away with it, I don't know.

      @@andyscullion Andy how can Ali steal the name UB40 it doesn't belong to any of them it was the name of the card you had to have when they were all signing on so no robins band doesn't own it and neither does Ali so when robin wanted to take him to court to get ownership of the name he had no chance of getting it as it was a signing on card that every unemployed person had to have to sign own

    • @andyscullion
      @andyscullion Год назад +1

      @@jackiesmith3684 I know what they were named after. However, the 'original' band that Ali left were called UB40. Ali was expecting them to fold but they didn't. So, Ali decides, after solo wasn't going great, to atake the name already in use...UB40!! So, we had TWO groups called UB40. I lost count how many people complained online because they bought tickets to go and see UB40 and were disappointed when it was Duncan, not Ali singing. That's not right. The 'originals' did take Ali to court. I'm not sure what the outcome was, but I'm assuming Ali was ordered to re-name UB40 ft Ali Campbell, so people knew who was who. You can't start a group or band and take somebody else's name. That's what Ali did. So I do believe he was in the wrong, I'm afraid.

It has romantic towns, rave towns, historical towns, just a great place to holiday.

    He's right about the tribute bands.... I saw one a couple of years ago and they were much better than the 'original' band I saw 6 months earlier (without Ali)...it's all so confusing.

    The real voice of UB40, selling out large venues and festivals and having top ten albums. Sadly Robin's tribute act are struggling and haven't properly chatted since Ali left, playing smaller and smaller venues. Very sad.

      I saw UB40 in Calgary 4 or 5 years ago having no clue Ali had left, and it was just weird seeing his brother trying to sing. The show was good overall but it was a small venue indeed.

    They are so rude, they made it a point to make him feel like an old relic. UB40 is a legend and their music is timeless, that what it will make them forever young.

    It is a shame that Ali left the band but his reasons for leaving were valid (the mismanagement of their record label and the subsequent bankruptcy of various band members). I don't agree with him using the UB40 name when his former bandmates are still going but that issue has been legally resloved. There have been several bands who have lost their main vocalist and have gone on to have more hits with a new vocalist. RIP Astro.

    Great singer, great talent from a magnificent band. seen the original, seen UB40 of today, and I have seen Ali and his band. For me, this connstant snipping at his ex band mates and calling them a tribute act is very insulting. You only get the real vibe with UB40, Ali's new band (in my oppinion) are simply no match from a musical perspective. My vote goes to UB40.

      Must admit, I got confused when he kept using the word 'we'. Who's 'we' exactly?
      He needs to stop acting like a kid and sort things. You can hear the petulant in him here. 'I am the one who sang the hits'. What, so the rest of the band, including your brother get no recognition? It was all Ali?? Grow up Ali!!!

      Yep He was the voice, Jimmy was and still is the drummer, Brian , Sax R I P Astro Toaster R I P , Norman Percussion, Earl Bass Robin Vocals Guitar, Micky Keyboards, so these guys also played on all those hits too mate

      @@delboy8569 I remember when they first split up. I thought in my head they'd be back together in five years. Obviously the wounds haven't healed. I think Ali basically wanted ultimate control as he saw himself as the main man. This didn't happen and he walked, expecting them to fold and then he'd reform with the ones he liked. But they didn't fold and replacing Ali with Duncan I think was what Ali can't forgive. But...HE left!!! They would have had him back if he swallowed his pride, shook hands and stop being a child!!

      @@warrennom3194 I agree he was the voice of UB40. But to say the rest contributed nothing to the group is silly on Ali's part. And if you need proof? How successful has Ali been since leaving? He's flopped. Solo didn't work out. So he takes UB40s name even though UB40 still exist. Right there; that is wrong. I don't care he was THE voice; UB40 was and is a group and Ali was out of order for just using the name claiming it's his. He's had no hits in the singles. A few albums that made the top 20. Three I think in fifteen years. He should have just gone back, shook hands and be 'UB40 '!!
