Madness | Hit Parade Volumes 1 & 2 (4LP Box Set) | VINYL

Madness are an English band whose lively ska rhythms, distinctive arrangements and sharply observed songs made them central to British pop. Their music combines humour with stories of everyday life.

Hit Parade surveys Madness from 1979 to 2024 through a forty-five-track programme. Early favourites sit alongside later recordings, revealing how the band’s melodic instincts, observational lyrics and characterful rhythms continued across successive eras.
