UB40: After Ali 'business as usual'


UB40 have revealed that not much has changed since Ali Campbell's departure.
The Birmingham born frontman and founding member left in January 2008 after 30 years with the group and was replaced by his brother Duncan.
"Since Ali's left, it's been business as usual," Astro said.
Robin Campbell explained: It hasn't changed that much, atually. Having Duncan, who's mine and Ali's brother, enables us to keep the vocal tone that we had all along. Eventaully he's not trying to be Ali but we still have that sound.
"Dunc's voice has been able to dovetail into the UB40 sound so that we maintain our identity without having to change too much," he added.
:: UB40 embark on a UK tour, which kicks off in Belfast on November 21, and will release their new album, Best Of Labour Of Love, on November 23.
