Re: James Ford
This is a fairly complicated question. I think PSB loom large in the studio, and by midway through their career at least some producers didn’t seem to exert much, if any influence. “Bilingual” comes to mind in this regard, did the producers make any difference on this album? “Bilingual” sounds self...

Re: New Single 'Feel'
I wonder if the idea for the Schlager song came from Munich in 1990

Re: New Single 'Feel'
Does anyone know the history of everybody will dance ? I can’t recall it having been mentioned? Maybe in an annually ..?
I was hoping for adrenaline on the next single , but not complaining. I wonder when it will get an airing ..

Re: Track-by-Track: From Please to Nonetheless
I remember being excited about this cover they had done on the radio and widened if they would ever release it. Sadly, they did, as it's one of the worst songs in their catalogue. Poorly produced and a terrible vocal that sounds like Neil is singing while sitting on the toilet. That it has undertone...

Re: A New Bohemia - 3rd single fr Nonetheless
I agree - I've got plans (involving you) is astonishingly good. It's thrilling and teeters on the tightrope of love and anticipation . It's why I fell in love with PSB in the first place and is a better track than any of Nonetheless (which I do like), but this early era has a sort of grit and atmosp...

Re: Track-by-Track: From Please to Nonetheless
I wonder why the rough mix of you know where you went wrong is not on further listening for Actually?

Re: A New Bohemia - 3rd single fr Nonetheless
It’s not a crime is almost overwhelming. It takes things back to the start . The hunger and the youthful hedonism that’s more appealing than the vacuous musical closerto heaven for eg, with its drugs and relentless sex. It’s more hopeful , and full of cowbell and electronic stabs and flourishes that...

Re: New album Nonetheless
Side 1 is perfect, Side 2 is way more patchy. A new Bohemia is gorgeous, but how this is deemed a single and not New London boy is staggering. It's like choosing Memory of the future - a good album track, but awful single choice - over A face like that. I liked the secret of happiness but I"m a...

Re: Instrumental albums
Hotspot instrumental is well worth a listen. Dreamland in particular sounds far grander without the vocals - almost has it's a sin choral sounds throughout it. I'm starting to fee that Hotspot is somewhat underrated. If only they'd had a producer with better quality control (wedding in Berlin, burn...

Re: Clean Air Hybrid Electric Bus
I can only assume this will appear on a b-side of a new bohemia ... so not going to listen until then!
