"An energetic album. This group made it pretty big in the UK during the early 80s, but their music may not have travelled widely. Their music very much reflects the optimistic mood of the early 80s when the UK was coming out of a serious recession. Questions some of the norms of society, but never gets heavy. A great series of live concerts."

"This album showcases Madness's unique blend of styles.More often than not people tend to chase the hits of most bands while ignoring the obsure gems.Songs like Tommorrows dream show a lugubrious side to a band often labeled as "Nutty" and "Wacky."
Other non hit wonders include Mrs Huchinson(a tale of someone on the brink of death with a twist of cockney slang and black humour)and Benny Bullfrog with real live burps.One step Beyond, Complete, and absolutely are their finest albums,This follows in second place."
