About this product
Singer/songwriter Danny Wilson was formally in critically acclaimed alternative country legends Grand Drive. The follow-up to 2009's acclaimed InchStreets of Our TimeInch, the album was produced by Tony Poole and mixed by Ted Hutt. The album features an entirely new Champs lineup which includes Rockingbirds bassist Chris Carter. Whereas the Champs were originally a loose and chaotic collective of like-minded souls so loose and so chaotic that, at any given gig or session, you couldn't accurately predict who exactly would be performing alongside Wilson this new incarnation of the group is a proper rock n roll band, wholly and entirely committed to being the Champs. I love folk music, I always have, Wilson says. But I'm so bored of new folk, and the trendiness that surrounds it, everyone pretending that it's 1971 again. I wanted to make a totally un-bearded record. My reference points were Black Flag and Bad Brains, Tom Petty and Thin Lizzy, not Nick Drake and Sweetheart of the Rodeo. Forget 1971, this is 1976 Dr. Feelgood, Nick Lowe, just great rock n roll. 180 gram vinyl housed in a heavyweight sleeve. Tracks 1. Ghosts in the Wire 2. Hearts & Arrow 3. Soul in the City 4. Colonel And the King 5. Brothers in the Night 6. Too Tough to Cry 7. Every Beat of My Heart 8. Can't Hold Back 9. on the Street 10. You Don't Know (My Heart Is in the Right Place)11. Walk with Me.

Another Holy Grail album from Jazz Room Records with Danny Ward & Reality who were the Go To Funky Jazz Band for College and other Hardcore Funk Party gigs in the Mid to late '70's in the Seattle area of the Pacific North West. They didn't just drop covers of the latest Disco or Top 40 hits though but instead took their audiences on a musical trip through the Funkiest and Jazziest sounds of the day featuring cuts made famous by George Benson, Lydia Pense and Coldblood, The Headhunters, Mandrill and many more. This unique recording capturing them live at a midweek gig showcases their style which of which Danny Ward says 'In the summer of 1977 this album was recorded at a club called The Tyee Restaurant and Lounge in Bremerton, Washington State, USA. The night this album was recorded, there was hardly an audience, perfect conditions for making this recording. We played every kind of venue, a lot of Top 40 dance clubs, but our style was to do a lot of soloing, despite the pressure of club owners and agents not to do so much soloing and be so 'jazzy'. We didn't care, we knew the audience loved us and we were very popular. This was the best group of musicians that I've ever worked with under the name of Danny Ward and Reality.' Tracklisting A1.

Fans of Scottish indie rock know Tracyanne Campbell from her time spent writing and singing songs for Camera Obscura, the charming group whose five LPs to date carry on the tradition of chiming Scottish pop. And anyone who loves beautifully melancholy acts like The Smiths and Lloyd Cole should already be aware of Crybaby, the masterfully crafted, eponymous 2012 album recorded by Bristol singer-songwriter Danny Coughlan. The lyrics on the tight, ten-song Tracyanne & Danny, the duo's self-titled debut record, draw from deep within their own experiences, from Campbell's steel-guitar-accented InchAlabama,Inch a reflection on the life of her late friend and bandmate Carey Lander (InchIt was important to make it sound joyous,Inch she says), to Coughlan's peppy InchCellophane Girl,Inch a song about his adolescent infatuation with a co-worker at a plastics factory. Inspired by a variety of artists including Serge Gainsbourg, The Style Council, Lou Reed, The Roches, and Dion, Tracyanne & Danny is vibrant, melodic, musical, and at times, even murdery.
