Probs one of my fave bands and certainly the best I have seen live. Currently listening to the masterpiece that is "The Colour Of Spring', reminds me of my time in the RAF in Germany, it used to be blasting out everywhere.
Gut, happy happy days. You ?
One of my favourite bands and massively under-rated. Mark Hollis was a genius and his passing was a very sad day. Got their first four albums.
I always think they were one band I should have got in to but didn't. Saw them live once and thought they were excellent.
I should really spend some time listening to their work.
I like Colour of Spring but prefer their next two albums, though they divide opinion, apparently, with the direction they took.
I feel they were let down by their first couple of singles and album. I didn't realise they were any good until their second record came out.
I like all their stuff, from the earlier synth-pop through to creating something quite unique with the post-rock latter LPs.
‘It’s my life’, ‘such a shame’ and ‘life’s what you make it’ are tremendous pop songs and are amongst some of my favourites of any artist.
For whatever reason I only got round to listening to Hollis’ solo LP relatively recently in the past couple years. Shame he didn’t write, record or release more. Very talented chap.
his voice was a bit off tone for me
But great songwriter
Steve Winwood’s Hammond was a great addition on this album.
