“Recently Colin seems to have developed a cocky attitude, which does not suit him” A misguided geography teacher in Bakewell, 1990
“Let Love Win” was the result of several days of frantic writing, A LOT of late nights, quite a bit of alcohol and a lot of patience from Matt and Andy (not to mention Hayley-boo). It was all completed in 5 days except the mastering and mixing which took another 2 days ... drawing the crocodile took considerably longer.
The album is mainly about where I live, Hunslet, and a bit about nasty computers which crash when you least expect them to. It sounds sort of like Radiohead meets Cher with a hint of John Denver, some Johnny Cash rolled in for good measure and a brilliant MC to make it sound different.
If you want a copy just mail me (or go to my other site www.colinmounsey.com) … it’s about £5 but very snazzy … it comes in a sexy shiny digipack which cost me a fortune and it’s on iTunes too (from 16/03/09)
Thanks for popping by. Up the blades.
Much love
Your Friend in time, Col x

"THESE DAYS I FIND THRASH AND POWER POP A BIT REPETITIVE, BUT THIS WAS REMINISCENT OF MORRISSEY WHILE STILL BEING PERSONAL, I HEAR THE POSSIBILITY OF A GOOD FUTURE. IT SOUNDS TO ME LIKE YOU COULD SUPRISE US ALL ONE DAY". (Paul Gambaccini, BBC Radio 6)
This beautiful super-heavyweight LP, which comes packaged in a sweet full-colour sleeve reunites the UK's premier free drummer Alex Neilson, who's played, amongst others, with Motor Ghost, Directing Hand, Trembling Bells, Tight Meat Duo, Josephine Foster, Bonnie 'Prince' Billy, Jandek, MV&EE, Richard Youngs, Baby Dee and Alastair Galbraith, with Nmperign member Greg Kelley, whose reinvention of the trumpet is as crucial now as Anthony Braxton's reinvention of the sax was 30 years ago. A screeching, soaring, scattergun array of noises come maniacally out of Greg's horn, unlike anything we've ever heard and, with the addition of random stabs of electronics, he successfully straddles no wave, concrete and free jazz in a way that makes those genres seem like trite pigeonholes.
