Take Cover!
BACKGROUND
This is the first time that the occasional cover versions that Madness have recorded and released as singles, album tracks, b sides and for other artist ‘tribute albums’ over their 40+ years career have been collated onto one compilation, especially curated by the band. These unique cover version interpretations are of songs previously recorded by a diverse range of artists such as John Lennon, Abba, Ian Dury, Billy Ocean, Jimmy Cliff and many more .
Housed in a poly-lined inner sleeve with an accompanying 12” x 12” insert, this translucent red vinyl LP is strictly limited to 2,000 copies worldwide.
