The feeling was: just to be nutty. Moving the head like a trojan. AMC TV in the UK recently debuted this new documentary series titled
Before We Was We: Madness by Madness, a inside and comprehensive look at the popular British ska band known as
Madness, which originally formed in 1976. We re only now catching up with this trailer - but it s really worth a look. The docu-series traces the humble beginnings of the band that would go on to set the record for the biggest audience ever for the BBC s Live New Year s Eve Broadcast – the most watched TV music event of 2018, and perform on top of Buckingham Palace as part of the Queen s Jubilee celebrations. Throughout their career, Madness have had 10 UK top ten albums, 15 top ten singles and have won a multitude of awards including a prestigious Ivor Novello. And the story isn t over yet. What a tease.

Madness are often thought of as a “singles band”, with all the term’s implied frivolity, as distinct from the supposed heft and substance of an “albums band”. In fact, Madness have been excellent at both.
They made “The Liberty Of Norton Folgate” (2009), which many critics consider their best album, three decades after their debut. That record was the apotheosis of everything the septet do so well. As creators of kitchen-sink pop, they belong in the first rank with The Kinks and Squeeze; as observers of their home city of London, they are heirs to Charles Dickens and Peter Ackroyd, a modern writer. Their gift is to combine all this in irresistible servings of pop jollity. A century and more of show business, working-class culture and street
