‘Take It Or Leave It’ nominated for Music Week Award!
27/02/2014
Salvo’s reissue of Madness’s ‘Take It Or Leave It’ has been
nominated for a Music Week Award, it has been revealed today. The Awards, which
cover all areas of the UK music industry are to be held in London on April 24.
Included in the Catalogue Marketing Campaign category, ‘Take
It Or Leave It’ combined Madness’s 1981 biopic on DVD, with its accompanying
soundtrack on CD for the first time ever. USM’s marketing campaign included
holding a launch party for the release at the same venue that hosted the
original premiere of the film, the Odeon on Camden Parkway. Members of the band
attended the launch and participated in a riotous Q&A session after the
film was shown.
The film itself (a must for Madness fans) is a wonderful
snapshot of London in the late 1970s and charts the band’s rise to fame from
their first gig as The Invaders to the departures hall at Heathrow for their
very first trip to America as the UK’s favourite band, Madness. The CD
soundtrack serves as an early best-of compilation with tracks from their first
three albums.
