Wonderful is the seventh studio album released by Madness, on 1 November 1999. The first album by the original line-up since 1984’s Keep Moving, the record marked the reunion of the nutty boys with a collection of classic tracks showcasing their trademark songwriting prowess. The lead single, ‘Lovestruck’, bears the well-loved Madness hallmark of melancholy married to sweet melody, while the magnificent ‘Drip Fed Fred’ features Ian Dury on vocals and skanks along with rollicking menace. The record reached no. 17 in the UK album chart on release, was hailed as a return to form, and likened to 1981’s 7 album. This 2CD reissue features brand new liner notes containing interviews with the band, and 14 bonus tracks.
