Our Take

As I settled in to listen to "Great British Twang!", I couldn't help but chuckle at the sheer audacity of the title. Twang, you say? In Britain? Well, color me intrigued.

This compilation album is a wild ride through the vast, sometimes bizarre landscape of British twang. From the twangy guitars of The Shadows to the twangy accents of The Beatles, this collection has it all.

The album kicks off with a rollicking track from Bert Weedon, the godfather of British twang, whose nimble fingers dance across his guitar like a spider on a hot tin roof. It's a toe-tapping start that sets the tone for the rest of the album.

Each track on "Great British Twang!" is like a little slice of musical history, showcasing the evolution of twang in Britain from the early days of skiffle to the heady heights of Britpop. It's a journey that's as entertaining as it is educational.

While some tracks may be a bit dated for modern ears, there's no denying the infectious energy and playful spirit that runs throughout the album. So grab a cuppa, put on your dancing shoes, and prepare to be swept away by the Great British Twang!
