Must say she has 'a bit of' a point save for a nagging Coldplayesque passage three-quarters the way through.

Their last couple of albums have not been quite up to par, but I love everything from Cast Of Thousands (2nd album) through to, and including, Seldom Seen Kid (4th album). There are some dead good tunes on the other three records too mind.<br /><br />I have a lot of time for Guy too - you're right, he is a properly nice, down-to-earth bloke according to a mate of mine who actually met him in Cardiff once and had a pint with him! I do understand the namedropping thing though - he does tend to be mates with everyone...<br /><br />His solo album has some interesting non-Elbowy things on it too.TheRobsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18277941961790844321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5834198189370622587.post-1641812376758823222016-03-17T13:06:15.883+00:002016-03-17T13:06:15.883+00:00I thought you might have a word or two to say abou...I thought you might have a word or two to say about Mr Garvey Singing Bear :-)The Swedehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13237251779370596904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5834198189370622587.post-72328021464813209142016-03-17T12:56:05.050+00:002016-03-17T12:56:05.050+00:00I have this album, bought (cheaply) out of curiosi...I have this album, bought (cheaply) out of curiosity.

I am also irrationally irritated by Guy Garvey. The music he plays is nearly always at the very least interesting and often very good (I think we may have similar tastes) but if he tells us ONE MORE TIME about how is mates with this artist or that one, I'll not be responsible for my actions. He just can't help himself. Definitely the biggest name dropper on the planet.

Guy Garvey seems to be a genuine geezer with no airs and graces and is, above all else, clearly a massive music fan. Fair play to him.The Swedehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13237251779370596904noreply@blogger.com
