UB40
One of the tightest, most "together" bands I've seen live. Great musicians these guys, even if they are just playing 3 chords! When I FINALLY did get to see them the couple of times I was lucky enough to see them, I was soo excited! The wait was worth it, I mean they are really GREAT!
Once upon a time there was a promoter (who shall not be named, but you know who you are!)who promised and advertised UB40 at a reggae festival we went to on Catalina in 1984. When he couldn't produce UB40, he had the horn section of The Untouchables (who were GREAT btw) play instead. Trouble was, he didn't tell anybody! AND he left the island to avoid controversy. And they didn't live happily ever after... Well, UB40 did, the promoter not so much, so far.
