The world of Andy Arthur's is intriguing and A Raincoat was a band that highlighted his many talents. This release is totally W&W - that could be Worthy & Whammo or Weird & Wacky. Either way, the album is an absolute hoot. Sing-a-long to this, and you'll lose your mind.

Well! My wife said she was gonna try to get you to find this. A buddy of mine picked up a copy on a trip to England in the 70s, and I made a cassette tape from it. I don't think they released it in the States. They may have a few singles also. There are some great songs on here!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely - this is a good LP. Suitably odd but substantially worthy. After all this time (for you and me) it's an absolute pleasure for me to get this to you. Enjoy.
ReplyDeleteWow. This is cool. Haven't had a chance to listen yet, but the hubby says it's great.
ReplyDeleteThanks again for your great taste and impeccable sense of weird and wonderful.
Pleasure. Hope it's not recorded too high. That was my main concern (apart from taking 500 years to blog this).
ReplyDeleteWhy, thank you!
ReplyDeleteThe wife says that certain songs remind her of Sparks. I suppose that is possible, even though the vocals in Sparks tend to be unique.
