As founding members of Britain’s biggest reggae band UB40, singer Ali Campbell, second vocalist Astro and keyboardist Mickey Virtue topped the UK singles chart on three occasions and sold 70 million records as they took their smooth yet rootsy musical blend to all corners of the globe.

Now with A Real Labour Of Love the trio give us a fresh take on the legendary series of albums, putting the focus primarily on reggae tracks from the 1980s, a decade that saw dancehall reggae enter the mainstream.

The man who defined the sound of a generation releases his 15th solo album.

Eponymously entitled Hank the album features newly recorded interpretations of some of Hank's favourite summer-themed music, along with one new original recording "Summer Guitar". It’s Marvin’s first new album release since his 2007 UK top-ten hit Guitar Man and consists of 14 tracks, nine of which are arranged by Hank and his son Ben.

The album also features some backing vocals from Hank's daughter Tahlia.
