Just wondering has anyone bought his album 'Politics' and if so, is it any good?

Love that La Ritournelle tune from last year but haven't heard much of him since :$

LR is one of the best tunes from the last 5 years - the album, however, is shite


Cheers hun :thumbsup:

Have bought far too many albums over the years on the foundation of me hearing a tune I like and prob 80% of them always turn out to be shit :rolleyes: Heard LR on one of the Gilles Peterson shows quite a while back and agree, it's a wicked tune. Perfect for a Sunday morning in fact - even if it is pissing down!

Glad I asked, thanks for your help :D

As Amelie says I went to see him a week or so ago in Manchester. I'd definitely recommend going to see him. It was only a tiny venue underneath Life bar which I think helped though.

He came on with a fag up his nose, which, to his credit, he smoked completely via his nose. During the first song he kept on coming out and kissing some girl's feet. Bizarre.

Music wise, it was just him and his mate; 1 keyboard, 1 sampler / synth, and a guitar, which they each changed round depending on the song. There were no drums though, so it was pretty much an accoustic set. It was very very good though.

Had a look at his website and fook me, the guy looks like a right nutter! Know what you mean though, an intimate venue can make all the difference. For the sake of a fiver on the Bay, I may just give the album a whirl. Think Zero 7's new one is out today which has Jose Gonzalez doing the vocals - love that 'Hand on your Heart' Kylie cover he done!

unfortunatly (for me) the new zero is a lot more uptempo. :(
