    One of THE SONGS of the 80s. Timeless classic!!

    They started off as a jazz/funk jam band in The Isle of Wight with no vocals. They toured the UK for 2 years before signing a record deal in 1980. When they got signed, they decided to audition vocalists and couldn't agree on one. Finally, their bassist, Mark King, and keyboardist Mike Lindup decided to trade vocals and ended up with their signature sound of King on low tenor and Lindup on falsetto. The original lineup of King, Lindup, guitarist Phil Gould, and drummer Boon Gould put out their best material from '81-'87 before the brothers left.
    If you're new to them, here's my suggestion of albums to check out:
    1. Standing In The Light
    2. World Machine
    3. Running In The Family

    'Saw them live once in Columbus back in the day. I did not know who they were or had ever heard any song of theirs. They were amazing!~ I managed a restaurant right next to the performance venue. I got four free tickets to any concert at any time -- we fed their bands. Three dear friends came rushing into my office one afternoon and asked to get into the concert. Having four tickets, I went with them. L42 was mind-blowing...

    Mark King is the ultimate performer. He can play bass, chew gum, and sing all at the same time. I jest not, go look up some of their live shows. Absolutely magnificent! 💯

    I had the World Machine and Lessons in Love albums as a teen. I moved to NYC and had a roommate who had lived in the UK. Only then did I find out they had a TON of other albums! Now I have them all. One of the best bands ever!

    Saw them three times when I was stationed in the UK in the 80's. I remember the day this album dropped. Mark King is an incredible bassist. If you really want the funk, try "Kansas City Milkman".

    the original line up of Mark King, Mike Lindup, Phil and Boon gould were simply awesome live, but their mangement wanted them to be more and more commerical and the brothers did'nt agree and left, for me Level 42 died that day and have never been the same since, but i still love listerning to their alumbs upto Heaven in our hands
