MADNESS Colonial stage helmet associated with “Night Boat to Cairo,” circa 1979–1980 British colonial pith helmet / Wolseley-style helmet, associated with one of the most recognizable images from Madness’s early days. The pith helmet became a signature element of the “Night Boat to Cairo” aesthetic, a track recorded in 1979 and released on the band’s debut album, *One Step Beyond*.... For the music video shot the following year for the EP *Work Rest and Play*, the members of Madness appear dressed in deliberately caricatured British colonial outfits—shorts and helmets of this type—against a backdrop of Egyptian pyramids The helmet was given by one of the band members backstage during the band’s concert in Lyon in 1979.
