On the lighter side, we have the brand new (& long awaited!) LP
from German electronic pop classicists Lali Puna, one of my
favourite bands of all time. The previous two albums haven't been
off my stereo for years. 'Faking The Books' is 11 tracks of classy, sharp
& delectable tunage. From the outset yr in familiar & comfortable territory.
This band are there primarily to appease fans of Stereolab who were
tired of their fave pop band disappearing up that much maligned jazz
cul-de-sac. Superb electronics & amazing songs all topped off with
Valerie's cool honey 'n' vanilla vocals. If you have never heard
these B4, start with this & work backwards to gain full appreciation
of this magical band. On Morr, CD & vinyl.
