No Shuffling, No Rune Reading, Just Music

New Brit Pop from The Lodger


Great bass line and saxophone, and lyrically smart.

A good friend and colleague of mine gave me The Lodger's 2007 album Grown-Ups, but he didn't give me this track he recorded in 1989, but I found it here anyway! Here's a J. H. composition with his late 80s/early 90s band The Wilmas: Do Me A Favor from Songs About Girls 7" vinyl ep (1989).

That's a great, self-effacing pop song--just the way I like 'em.

Ten year's before Mr. H. & Co. were rocking The Bottleneck, these Irish lads were the top of the pops.
(I don't think the similarities are accidental, and that is NOT a bad thing as far as I'm concerned.)
