Then you might recognize Ian Gomm, Lene Lovich, Ian Dury as some of the Stiff records releases many moons ago. I loved the first records from these guys (Not Ian Dury, who had been around for awhile. But Ian Gomm sure had a pure pop sound that was quite infectious.
For some reason, I've found Impossible Bird difficult to listen to, dunno why.....I have a fairly extensive Nick collection, and it just semed like he wasn't "trying" on that one....I rather enjoy the old stuff from his first several lps (not naming names due to differences betwixt UK and US releases......but have to admit that the US record execs were a bunch of pusses for not releasing his first as it was in the UK - that's one of the greatest all time album titles ever !!! LOL...) Last time I saw Nick live was right after he broke up with wife, ummmm, Carlene ??? was it ??? Carlene Carter ?? I think.....had Paul Carrack on tour with him (Cowboy Outfit ???....damn, I can't remember shit anymore...LOL)invisible Pole wrote:I second The Impossible Bird. Lots of fine songs on the album : one of Nick's most beautiful ballads, "Shelley, My Love", "The Beast In Me", "Where's My Everything?" and a great cover of "True Love Travels On A Gravel Road" are my favourites.
