UNKLE BOB The Hit Parade EP
Friendly Sounds release 21.3.05
This largely acoustic release is flawless. The entire collection from this Glasgow based band has been produced with the aid of a grant through the Scottish Arts Council and released off their own backs. This first effort shows astonishing potential for songwriting that is genuinely moving. It’s beautiful, fragile and delicate from start to finish. It’s easy to understand why the international response to this track on my show has been so immense. I’d like to buy them all a pint when they get their deal which, to be honest, is inevitable.
