I stumbled across a tatty old LP in my local second-hand record store and only bought it on account of one of the blokes on the cover looking a bit like my brother, but the moment I put the needle down I was entranced and still am to this day. Gorgeous melodies, swirling instrumentation and soaring harmonies, all underpinned by a delicate melancholia that makes your mind drift off in all sorts of directions - intoxicants definitely not needed here. I've been listening to this album for over fifteen years now and it has become one of my personal evergreens, able to subtly insinuate itself with the various moods and changes through my life. Risk your hard-earned here, it's well worth it.
