I'm just giving this Gerry Mitchell/ Various Production 'The Invisible Lodger' album a second listen and I must say there's some magic happening with this collaboration. I think they first teamed up with for a remix on a 7" and it seems the relationship has been most fruitful. The most striking thing about this album is how good Various Production sound when they're not trying to tackle the latest genre. For the most part it's somber, brooding and mournful and Mr Mitchell is a gritty as ever although this album does reveal a slightly lighter side of the man. His poetry and the production seem to work in perfect harmony. He's a supremely talented wordsmith and if you allow yourself to be seduced into his world you'll be rewarded. I'd love to share a bottle of Glen Morangie with him and have him torture my soul with his stark and powerful black poetry.

This is a bit of a 'curate's egg' (i.e. good in parts).
It's good for background listening, but you need a bit of volume to really hear Gerry's poetry.You may get the impression that Gerry is a terminally miserable bu**er, but I promise you I have seen him crack a smile!Rating: 4 out of 5So, what do you think?
