Our Take

Ah, Pelican West - the album that brought us hits like "Love Plus One" and "Favourite Shirts (Boy Meets Girl)." HAIRCUT 100's debut record has been reissued in a Half-Speed Master Edition for its 40th anniversary, and let me tell you, it's like listening to these tunes with a freshly sharpened pair of scissors.

The funky rhythms and catchy hooks that made this album a staple of 80s pop are still as irresistible as ever. From the jangly guitars to the infectious saxophone solos, Pelican West is a nostalgic trip back to a time when New Wave ruled the airwaves.

The Half-Speed Master Edition does justice to the album's original sound, with each track sounding crisper and more vibrant than ever before. It's like HAIRCUT 100 has been given a makeover and come out looking like a million bucks.

So grab your hairspray and shoulder pads, because Pelican West is ready to take you back to a simpler time when music was all about fun and dancing. HAIRCUT 100 may have been a one-hit wonder, but with this reissue, they prove that their brand of infectious pop is timeless. So go ahead, treat yourself to this remastered gem and bask in the glory of 80s nostalgia.
