[Lie-in King]

Don't know if you're about?..

Just thought I'd let you know I got "your" album on Friday. I woke up today full of lurgy & hoped it would give me a lift this evening...did it ever!!

Superb!! Excellent!!

I confess to some trepidation having read an article linked from the site you gave me that said "...punk, garage, indie-rock...", as I really don't like punk!

IMHO though, HMHB may have some roots that stretch that far back, but they're no longer feeding the main plant of creativity as evidenced by this album. (What am I on about?!..)

"Achtung Bono" has to come out of library storage - it's been that long since anybody wanted it! - & I can't wait to see if it's as good as "CSI", then I'll have to see about saving some pennies...

I'm genuinely thankful for your recommendation (JDOvengloves also gets a mention & stars here), as I'm always pleased to find new (to me, at least) music & would never have thought to try them otherwise.

To paraphrase, "Methinks we could all use a little ho ho ho..." - oh dear, I'm at it already...

All I want for christmas is a Dukla Prague away kit............

So glad you liked the album Lie-In-King. They are hard to categorise musically. Andy Kershaw dubbed them "the most authentic English folk group since the Clash. "

Its a shame there's no easy way to exchange email addresses safely, as I could give you their entire back catalogue.

Hope you're well soon. CSI
