Red Red Wine" is a song originally written, performed and recorded by American singer Neil Diamond in 1967. UB40 are a reggae band from Birmingham, England and were part of a musical movement of two tone (ska meets punk-ish) and reggae in the English Midlands late 70's early 80's

Before their huge chart success with these covers, UB40 recorded some of the most important and cultural music in the U.K. In the late 70's and early 80's the U.K. was going through a huge social change. UB40 wrote lyrics for this time. 'One in Ten', 'Earth Dies Screaming', King', 'Food for Thought', the later being a huge favourite of early fans, a classic in U.K. music history.

Yeah, cheese for sure. Played to death and used to drive me mad when there was so much more of their great music avalible. The only cover I ever liked of there's was 'Please Don't Make Me Cry'. I suppose, like most bands, if there is an opportunity to make some cash and move to a commercial sound, they will. Sad but inevitable. It just means they moved away from and stopped writing about the issues of the time. At least we have a small legacy of those times and I remember them like they did. Sad but important times in our history.

UB40 was the name of the form you filled out in England to apply for unemployment - something the band members were very familiar with in their early years. They did some great jams - there's an extended version of this with a cool bit of a rap in the middle that you should check out. 'Rat In The Kitchen' was another great jam of theirs. Great reaction as always you guys, peace and love from Canada!

UB40 did a good job on the song. Gave the song that little Reggae sound, but as others said Neil Diamond (most active in the 1960's and 1970's). He is well respected famous for "Sweet Caroline", "Solitary Man", "Thank The Lord For The Nighttime" & more good songs from the movie he starred and performed in called the "Jazz Singer", couple of highlighted songs from the movie: "Hello Again", "Love On The Rock" & "Coming to America"

Love how Asia caught that UB40's version doesn't sound like a 'sad song' - cos Neil Diamond's original version WAS a sad ballad that matched the words. UB40 even had NO IDEA this was a Neil Diamond song when they decided to record it. They thought it was an old traditional island reggae song, since that's the version they first heard. I saw Neil in concert around the time UB40 was having a hit w their version. He started out w the slow original version then went into this reggae version. When he got to the rap part UB40 had added (which wasn't in this version for some odd reason), he said 'UB40, we be #1!'. It was hilarious :) Thanks for the video.

I would have thought the death of Brian Travers and Astro might pull them together but alas they both haven't backed down and even when their other brother Duncan had a stroke, they still did not have a reconciliation.....all very sad.

Creedence Clearwater Revival version is more deliberate/aggressive. Then a newer version from Rob Thomas and Daryl Hall is funky, and almost celebrating the relationship ending. It's different interpretations of the same breakup. All 3 are great.

Nothing like a good reggae hit. UB40 have been going since around 1977/78. They really came into prominence though in the 80's and have been a "staple diet" for reggae lovers worldwide. Their name UB40 comes from the Unemployment Form you fill out to get the unemployment benefit in England. Asia you are right. The song doesn't sound like a sad song but it kinda is 😂 but you still want to get up and dance 😂 . They have many, many hits. Labour of Love being one of their top albums along with their first Signing Off. They sing many covers mixed with originals. Sadly 2 of their members Saxophonist Brian Travers and Terence Wilson otherwise known as Astro passed away last year. Great reaction Asia and BJ ❤️

Neil Diamond wrote, recorded, and released "Red Red Wine" in 1967. The song cracked the top 100 but not the top 40. Jamaican Rocksteady singer Tony Tribe released a reggae cover of it in 1969 which became a minor hit in the UK. UB40 released their cover on their 1983 studio album, Labour of Love, which was packed full of covers of the songs they loved -- Eric Donaldson "Cherry Oh Baby", The Wailers "Keep on Moving", The Slickers "Johnny Too Bad", and Jimmy Cliff "Many Rivers to Cross" among others. That album introduced reggae to a wider audience, but I prefer the originals. Give them a listen and decide for yourself.

UB40 had never heard the original Neil Diamond version when they set out to record a cover. Jamaican Tony Tribe had recorded a rocksteady cover of it, and they took on his version of the song.
