Advantages: Some good songs
Disadvantages: But some decidedly average ones tooo
This is the big album for the Happy Mondays from the 90's which included the big hits Step On and Grandbags Funeral. The album was early in the career of the Mondays before their split.
I actually really like the music from Black Grape and so bought this as this is where parts of Black Grape started. Unfortunately it isn't up to stratch with the later albums. Some of songs are classic tracks and the biggest here is Step On.
The album is a mix of the slightly strange vocal and the brit pop sound from the 90's. At times the album has a mellow feel, and at others you can hear elements of James, and REM in there.
If you're a big fan then go for it, but otherwise give it a miss...
