What we say

Rating: happy This record left our Brian feeling happy.

God. After the new wave of Shoegaze, the old guard are back. Halstead & Goswell are back with a new album under the Mojave 3 banner and I'm wanting to be annoyed by it's jangly Byrdsian grooves and Lush-lite harmonies but I just can't stop tapping my feet to opener 'Truck Driving Man' You can't argue with well produced guitar pop unhindered by fashion or plodding averageness. It's the deftness & ease of these songs. Uncluttered, catchy & simple, like say Teenage Fanclub's finest moments or perhaps Go-Betweens later material. See also 'Raintown' era Deacon Blue on 'Breaking The Ice'. Nice classy summer pop with an airy bounce & dare I say it, music with a bit of soul & feeling. Quite surprised I like this but I do!

About the humble LP:

The LP is the daddy of formats. 12" inches of sheer joy. The LP adds to the glory of the 12" record as it can be played at a slower speed (33rpm instead of the usual 45rpm for singles), consequently more musical joy can be had. Played on a decent deck the sound of an LP is about a million times better than any other format. They look fantastic...... a nice gatefold sleeve with a information rich inner sleeve will keep you entertained for hours even before your stylus has chance to make eye contact with it's 12" prey. An essential part of musical heritage which will never be forgotten. It still does play at a multitude of speeds but as it's recorded to be played slower they normally sound ridiculous sped up. Though double albums can make up for this slight inadequacy by ramming more tunes into your ears for your money. Utterly essential.
