Spratleys Japs
Pony (1999) + more
A reworked compilation of the Tim Smith era Spratleys
plus a, post-Tim, Marc Riley session from 2019.
An excellent spin-off of Cardiacs which I highly recommend.
Probably just one for me n Bambi?

Anything Tim Smith did is great in my books, however I know many find the music a bit challenging. All the best for 2025 Titus.
ReplyDeleteCheers Bambi. It occured to me when I was putting this together that, had it been something else, I would have been tempted to re EQ it. But I know the thin/abraisive sound is exactly what Tim liked. The unusual songwriting combined with such production probably puts some people off
