Unprecedented, by UB40 featuring Ali Campbell and Astro, reached No. 8 on the UK albums chart. Ali has dedicated the track Sufferer, to his beloved friend and bandmate of over four decades, Astro, who tragically passed away last November. Ali Campbell said in a statement. “This album is now more poignant and special than either of us could have imagined when we were recording it. Astro heartbreakingly passed just two weeks after we’d finished the final mixes, so this is a way of keeping his memory alive.” We’ll Never Find Another Love is among several of the group’s final original songs featuring Astro on the record. Unprecedented also includes covers that don’t encompass traditional reggae, like Kris Kristofferson’s Sunday Mornin’ Coming Down, Stevie Wonder’s Do Yourself A Favor, and East 17’s Stay Another Day. But the group also includes more authentic reggae covers like The Frightnrs’ What Have I Done, The Grappy Ranks’ Heaven In Her Eyes, and Luisa Mark’s Caught You In A Lie, (featuring Campbell’s daughter Indica on lead vocals).
