Very, very disappointed with it. Only halfway decent tracks are Charlie Parker and The Village is Dead. And they wouldn't have made the cut on Fanfare. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CD 3 which is the odds n sods is obviously the interesting one as everything else I already knew. I’m not a completist but this is the peak / end of their really productive time so I’m hoovering everything and anything up. There’s more than enough decent stuff on there, and quite interesting to follow the development of some songs, that start off with lyrics and end up being intrumental. Or a couple of songs recorded in 2002 that sound all but finished that don’t make the cut for the album and then re appear 3 years later on another album. Bluebird 1 is a personal fave, but the last 4 or 5 tracks recorded in Rockfield and Monnow Valley are excellent. But then I’ve got a whole drums thing going on at the moment and you can really hear them in the rough mix. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to hear that - I’ve quite enjoyed it on in the background and think it’ll be a grower (apologies for the KW!) Fanfare was such a good album though, nothing much of JW’s following stuff has quite reached the same levels. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seat68 Posted September 14, 2023 Share Posted September 14, 2023 Guts by Olivia Rodrigo, I have given this a few spins before commenting. Her previous album, was my favourite of the year, and it was instant, I got to the end and restarted it. I still listen to it regularly. This album, Guts, is not weak, far from it, and it will be number 1 on Friday, but its not even close to Sour for me. Lyrically its relatively poor in comparison. Musically it's mainly upbeat but just OK. It's not bad, and I am not describing it as that, Vampire for example is superb, and easily the best song on the album, but I stress, Sour was lyrically brilliant. Guts doesnt have a single lyric that has stuck in my head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
