Includes a foreword written by Simon Carson and Paul Waller, with the latter being the author of the book "LEVEL 42 - A Worldwide Visual Discography". The booklet contains album lyrics, as well as photos of the singles released from the album. Level 42 remain one of the greatest draws on the live circuit and continue to perform worldwide, 45 years after forming. Founded in late 1979 Level 42 rose from the burgeoning UK Jazz Funk scene to international stardom. Signed by the small independent label, Elite Records in 1980 whilst still a mainly instrumental group, Level 42 were encouraged to widen their appeal with their songwriting and quickly established themselves as a powerful live band on the budding British and European jazz funk scene. Their single 'Love Meeting Love' attracted the attention of Polydor Records, with whom they signed their second recording contract, which launched their chart success with twenty UK Top 40 Singles and twelve Top 40 Albums.
