Belle & Sebastian worshippers Tompaulin have their
early Track & Field singles packaged together on a comp called
'Everything Was Beautiful & Nothing Hurt' The opener is 'Slender'
& sounds like t'lass from Saloon fronting a pub size version of
U2. This as it happens is actually not a bad thing. The second tune
is like 'Love Of The Common People' covered by Beautiful South or
summat. This UNBELIEVABLY is not a bad thing either (!!??). I think It's
the simple indie nature of the tunes. Keeps it within the bracket of naive
& charming floss. I'd still rather develop herpes than listen to it
again. Kirsty Macoll would turn in her grave. File under 'Fey'
