Produced by long time collaborator John Williams who produced both Housemartins albums and the previous three Paul Heaton & Jacqui Abbott albums – ‘What Have We Become’ (’14), ‘Wisdom, Laughter & Lines’ (’15), and ‘Crooked Calypso’ (’17) – the record was recorded at Blueprint Studios in Salford, Manchester. As is Paul Heaton’s habit the lyrics were written in various locations in North Holland and Belgium while the music was composed in a hotel in Puerto Rico, Gran Canaria and in Limburg An Der Lahn in Germany. Says Paul: “I’ve lived in Manchester for 17 years now and recording an album here for the first time, was looking forward to cycling to work. That was never possible as Manchester is now being turned into a business centre for the rich, which I can’t stand. If there’s a theme to the record, it’s anti growth, anti greed, against the continuous tearing down of old buildings and sticking up soulless offices, and the disappearance of local accents on TV, along with the creeping spread of Americanese. So, some curmudgeonly moans, plus some hopefully uplifting love songs. Originally it was set up to be a double LP like ‘London Calling’ but alas the double album has also become a victim of time.” Says Jacqui: “I’m so pleased and excited about the new album, it was wonderful to work on new songs and even more so that we did double what we have done for the last few records. It’ll be a joy to see others react to something we took such pleasure out of making.” Artist Paul Heaton & Jacqui Abbott Genre Rock And Pop Label Virgin Buying Options 2LP Gatefold Sleeve Includes Download Code Format 2LP , Gatefold Sleeve , Includes Download Code Condition New Country UK Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Paul Heaton & Jacqui Abbott and more from Rock And Pop View Product Quick View Paul Heaton & Jacqui Abbott Crooked Calypso Rock And Pop | Virgin Records | 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve, Includes Download Code Released 21st July 2017 £18.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Paul Heaton & Jacqui Abbott Crooked Calypso £18.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Virgin Records SKU: V3185 Formats: 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve, Includes Download Code Released Date: 21st July 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Godspeed You!
