"Fans of UB40 who brought this 1997 album expecting to hear lightweight pop grooves reminisent of their previous "Promises and lies" CD may have been surprised. "Guns in the ghetto" is a very pure reggae album that wastes no time trying to attract a pop audience. For this reason,it will probably not go on to be UB40s best remembered album, but tracks like "Always there", "I love it when you smile" and the title song make it worth buying,as do "Tell me is it true" "Oracabessa moonshine" and "lisa.""
Love it!!

"Having been brougt up with UB40 I went on to collect the first 15 albums and was disapointed with Promise's and lies for being to pop but I still got Guns and was soon gelling out to the pure reggae best track Tell me is it true A sexy reggae track"
UB's fire still burns
