Songs about drinking, and more songs about drinking, and then songs that sound better if you're drunk. Also, they sound great the rest of the time.This record contains no actual jazz. It does, however, contain a member of Love & Rockets, though it sounds nothing like them. This is pure lovely snarky british 80s pop, in one of its more literary/clever/drunken/clever forms.
It also contributed, very indirectly, to me losing my virginity. But that's really none of anyone's business so I'll leave it at that.
Supposedly actual vinyl of this band, in that era, is extremely collectible and goes for large sums on ebay. I have only a live album and a fading memory of the several cassettes I wore out. This album was always my favorite.
