If you're into Sun City Girls then you may be familiar with one of the members Sir Richard Bishop. Latitudes have releases a solo guitar album, rather amusingly titled Fingering The Devil. This was recorded at Southern Studios in London (as with all the Latitudes series) and is basically one man and his guitar. This is very acomplished indeed, yet he never wonders off into noodle territory. There's a spanish/ gypsy/ flamenco feel running throughout. This is really very good and a perfect summer soundtrack. Beware however as the artwork contains a picture of a hand with a nail through it, I totally was not expecting to see that this morning and it nearly made me boak my rice crispies all over the computer. Also in by Sir Richard Bishop is a 7" which is the first installment of the No-Fi Archive series and is a recording of him doing Sun City Girls tracks at Morden Tower in Newcastle.

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.
