Q Magazine again... "Acoustically ambient church caretakers Belle and Sebastian are recording their third album in their home studio." I beg to differ. Church caretakers are not called church caretakers, are they? That bloke on Dad's Army was called the verger, I think. There's another word, but I can't for the life of me remember what it is. I'll have to ask my mum. Paul... Felt... I've said it once and I'll say it again. Denim are much better. Or at least much funnier. And more of an influence on Belle and Sebastian. Sample lyric - "ah what's your name? - yeah mine's that too! " And that's just the tip of a very ample iceberg of lyrical genius. One of my favourite groups ever. Felt are a bit lacklustre in comparison, although I liked them at the time. I even had the honour of seeing them perform once. Lawrence is very small. Someone lowered the tone ever so slightly by shouting "Hey! That's the bass player out of the Long Ryders!" at the mother of all pudding basin bass players. Duffy (now tinkling the ivories with Bobby and the Screamies) was particularly miserable. Showed no signs of life whatsoever from the wrists up. Like a piano playing Nick Knox. I think there's a couple of compilations available, Bubblegum something and Absolute Bastard Classics. I believe they may have played their last ever concert in Greenock. Or maybe it was just their last ever concert in Greenock. As opposed to their last ever concert ever ever. Such is my love of Denim that I would be only too happy to supply you with a poor quality tape of durable Denim classics. Has anyone heard this new Norman Wisdom compilation?
