The original 'Absolutely' album on CD - beautifully re-mastered - plus a second disc containing promo videos, BBC concert and bonus tracks including singles, 12ins and B-sides.
'Absolutely' is the second Madness album, and the one which features the classic schooldays anthem "Baggy Trousers". It also contains the lighthearted instrumental "The Return of the Los Palmas 7" and the band's first real foray in to the realms of social comment, with the excellent "Embarrassment". This is classic early Madness, a snapshot of a band on the ascent from their beginnings as nutty ska boys to international pop superstars.
Here we have the original album on CD - beautifully re-mastered - plus a second disc containing promo videos, BBC concert and bonus tracks including singles, 12ins and B-sides.
The digipack cover features original album artwork and 24-page colour booklet including lyrics, photos and liner notes by journalist Paul Lester.
