Our Take

Gather round, fellow music lovers, for a trip down memory lane with the latest reissue of Kilburn & The High Roads' "Handsome". Originally released in 1975, this album sees frontman Ian Dury and his merry band of misfits deliver a quirky mix of pub rock, punk, and new wave that is as charming as it is infectious. From the infectious swagger of "Crippled With Nerves" to the cheeky wordplay of "Pam's Moods", Dury's lyrical wit and unique vocal delivery are on full display here. The band's tight musicianship, led by guitarist Keith Lucas and saxophonist Davey Payne, keeps the energy levels high throughout the album. Standout tracks like "Rough Kids" and "The Call-Up" showcase Kilburn & The High Roads at their best, blending catchy hooks with Dury's signature offbeat observations on life and love. And let's not forget the album's titular track "Handsome", a rollicking anthem that will have you tapping your feet and singing along in no time. Despite its age, "Handsome" still feels fresh and relevant today, a testament to the enduring talent of Ian Dury and his band. So grab a pint, put on your dancing shoes, and let Kilburn & The High Roads take you on a wild ride through the streets of London. Cheers to a true British gem of a record!
