About this album
Complete Madness is a brisk, high-energy snapshot of Madness at their commercial peak. Issued in 1982, the compilation pulls together the band’s early UK hits and shows how their blend of ska, pop-rock and New Wave turned sharp humour, working-class detail and dancehall bounce into mainstream pop. With favourites such as One Step Beyond, My Girl, Baggy Trousers, Night Boat to Cairo and It Must Be Love, it captures the distinctive sound that made Madness one of the defining British singles bands of the era. The set also reflects the group’s knack for melody and theatrical personality, which helped keep 2 Tone-style music firmly in the pop charts.
