BEFORE IT WAS A

HIT SONG…

These songs are well known but you may not know about the earlier attempts to score a hit record with prior versions of the same song.

One Step Beyond

"One Step Beyond" was the title track from the debut album by British group Madness. Released as a single in 1979, the disc became the band's first UK Top 10 hit and broke the group internationally. 

In 1964, the mostly instrumental original "One Step Beyond" was issued as the B-side of "Al Capone", a single from Jamaican ska musician Prince Buster. That disc did not chart in Britain until 3 years later, when the single reached the Top 20.
