How a bunch of guys from working class backgrounds, somewhat troubled youth, some w criminal records banded together to make such utterly ambitious music with complex arrangements and poignant lyrics and do so for so long and have so many hit records is really one for the history books and is a testament to their hard work, vision and creativity. Pure class.

Mike Barson’s to leave the band in 1983 was really the decline in the band’s mainstream popularity as he was the mainstay of the band and his non appearance in the band’s last top ten hit my name is Michael Caine, although the band did sign off with the hit Ghost Train in 1986 they never managed to return to the top with music industry moving on

They're all genius in their particular way, every member has contributed quite a lot. Barson incredibly gifted one and the driving force of the early days. But Bedders and Woody joining the Invaders was what made them take off after all. Love them as the collective that they are, but if I had to pick my favorite musician, it'd be Bedders as well!

@HVDonkeyPark11 ай бұрын
I think you mean affliction (infliction means they, Madness, are suffering from having a sax player inflict the pain on them... haha, suppose in some circumstances, bands do have members that cause that kind of pain). Curious what songs you think the sax is overdone? I can't think of any, but it might just be my taste. Regardless, starting as a Ska band and then evolving into their own sound, they wouldn't be the same--they wouldn't be Madness--without the sax. That's like criticizing a rock band for having lead guitar in every song or a chamber orchestra for having a violin in every song.
