Whilst admiring the enthusiasm and skill of the players, on some of the tracks I quickly became bored. But some others were a complete joy.

Bit of a curate's egg - an interesting album and worth repeated listening, but at the moment I'll give it 6/10.



Good choice Grant - just the sort of thing we like to see on the Album Club.
i picked because it would be uncomfortable for most. Its not every day listening for me either although ive listened to it a lot lately before choosing it.
For me, i could have went for something more folk would like but i felt as a mod, i should hit hard lol.
Im glad some folk have liked the odd track as its a very good album, even tho its of a style not listened to so much now.
