At this years Grammy awards UB40 were nominated for best reggae album, for their most recent album released in 2006.

A whole generation has grown up listening to Ali’s infectious vocals on classics like “One in Ten”, “Red Red Wine”, “Don’t Break My Heart” and “Can’t Help Falling In Love”. Ali has stayed true to his love of reggae and its ongoing capacity for innovation.
