The third album from the masters of blissed out post rave cyberdelic funsters Lemon Jelly arrived on my doormat this morning, and it's a goody. The sticker on the imaculately designed gatefold cd says "This is our new album - it's not like our old album", which is not entirely true. It has a similar feel to "Lost Horizons", but the conceit this time is that each track is based around a sample, riff or vocal hook from a different track spanning the thirty years or so referenced by the album title. Perhaps the most recognizable track is "Stay with you" from the seventies duo Galagher and Lyle, but on first listening the stand out tracks are probably "Slow Train" - a delicious reworking of a barbershop quartet - and the utterly mental "Go" complete with William Shatner vocals and a full on guitar break at the end.
Go and buy it now.
