I've tried and I've tried and I've tried but I've never really got into Plush. Every single review I've seen describes it in a way that would seem that I would like it but all I hear and see is Leo Sayer covering Randy Newman. Not much has changed with this new album 'Bright Penny' despite the name change to Liam Hayes and Plush. The arrangements come straight from a 1978 version of Top of the Pops - the kind of easy listening toss thankfully spewed away when Johnny Rotten et al came along. To me it sits on the cheesy side of easy listening recalling cruise ships rather than yacht rock. One of the main problems is Hayes extremely weedy voice. It needs double tracking or something - or some harmonies. Oh actually its not that at all its that the songs are unremittingly bland and forgettable and the arrangements cheesy and obvious. I love smooth 70's music as much as the next man but this makes my skin crawl. Comparisons.......Manhatten Transfer maybe? The house band on 3-2-1 starring Ted Rogers? Glen Ponda?
