Description

One Step Beyond isn't the best album in the world - it's not even the best album by Madness. It is, however, a great record and an exceptional debut album — fully formed despite half the band still being in their teens — and it remains as exhilarating, inspiring and as much fun as when people first heard it nearly 30 years ago.
