Manchester Calling Paul Heaton & Jacqui Abbott SKU: V3241 Barcode: 602508414015 26.00 £26.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Virgin Released Date: 6th March 2020 Buying Format: 2LP Gatefold Sleeve Includes Download Code Out of stock Back Order Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info ‘Manchester Calling’ boasts all the hallmarks of Heaton’s beautifully bittersweet songwriting – effortlessly catchy melodies allied with an everyman’s biting exasperation at the modern world alongside some truly heartfelt love songs. 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 Kiss Lick It Up Rock And Pop | Back To Black | 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 31st March 2014 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Kiss Lick It Up £19.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Back To Black SKU: 3771551 Formats: 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 31st March 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Imagine Dragons Night Visions – 10th Anniversary Edition Rock And Pop | Polydor | 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 9th September 2022 £38.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Imagine Dragons Night Visions – 10th Anniversary Edition £38.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Polydor SKU: 4592309 Formats: 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 9th September 2022 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Marc Bolan Tramp King Of the City : Home Demos Volume 2 Rock And Pop | Easy Action | 1LP Released 20th November 2018 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Marc Bolan Tramp King Of the City : Home Demos Volume 2 £20.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Easy Action SKU: EARS142LP Formats: 1LP Released Date: 20th November 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Rolling Stones, The Emotional Rescue (Half-Speed Master) Rock And Pop | Polydor | 180g, 1LP Released 26th June 2020 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Rolling Stones, The Emotional Rescue (Half-Speed Master) £20.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Polydor SKU: 0877325 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 26th June 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Japandroids Post Nothing Rock And Pop | Polyvinyl | Miscellaneous Released 1st October 2009 £12.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Japandroids Post Nothing £12.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Polyvinyl SKU: PRC1841 Formats: Miscellaneous Released Date: 1st October 2009 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Leonard Cohen Various Positions Rock And Pop | 4 Men With Beards | 180g, 1LP Released 10th August 2016 £27.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Leonard Cohen Various Positions £27.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: 4 Men With Beards SKU: 4M814LP Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 10th August 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders On Sale View Product Quick View Heidi Berry FireFly – RSD 2023 Rock And Pop | Glass Modern | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 22nd April 2023 £11.00 £22.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Heidi Berry FireFly – RSD 2023 £11.00 £22.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Glass Modern SKU: GLAMLP050 Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 22nd April 2023 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Jesus Jones Liquidizer Rock And Pop | Demon Records | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 28th October 2022 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Jesus Jones Liquidizer £19.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Demon Records SKU: DEMREC952 Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 28th October 2022 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Massive Attack Mezzanine Rock And Pop | Virgin Records | 180g, 2LP, Includes Download Code Released 25th November 2014 £35.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Massive Attack Mezzanine £35.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Virgin Records SKU: 3754043 Formats: 180g, 2LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 25th November 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Kurt Vile So Outta Reach Rock And Pop | Matador | 12", EP/Mini Album Released 7th November 2011 £9.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Kurt Vile So Outta Reach £9.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Matador SKU: OLE9691 Formats: 12", EP/Mini Album Released Date: 7th November 2011 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Rock And Pop Start again
