SL Records LONE11. 2001
A collection of the first three eps plus bonus tracks. A delicious slab of indie brilliance. Manages to be sweet, funny and poignant all at once, without the twee nonsense of Belle and Sebastian. Not 'Club' music at all.
I don't think this is mine - probably belongs to JM. Sorry mate, I'll give it back.
There are stickers on the back with a revised track list and an apology for a mix-up at the pressing plant. Ah bless.
This veers from jolly thumpers like the opener Donald in the bush with a bag of glue, to gentle finger-pickers like They'll hang flags from cranes on upon my wedding day, back to anthemic biggies like Public park. Never boring. One of the best disks so far and it isn't even mine.
'Space is brilliant'
'Someday we'll be millionaires, and we'll go dumper-truck racing'
