Our Take

Ah, Gerry Rafferty, the man, the myth, the legend. Known for his smooth vocals and laid-back vibes, Rafferty has once again graced us with his musical genius in "Snakes And Ladders."

From the moment I pressed play, I was transported to a world where melody reigns supreme and lyrics are king. The opening track, "The Royal Mile," sets the tone for the rest of the album with its catchy tune and heartfelt lyrics. Rafferty's soothing voice is like a warm blanket on a cold winter's night, wrapping you up in its comforting embrace.

But don't let the mellow vibes fool you, there are some surprises in store on "Snakes And Ladders." Tracks like "Café Le Cabotin" and "Why Won't You Talk To Me" inject a dose of funk and attitude into the mix, showing us that Rafferty is not afraid to push the boundaries of his signature sound.

Overall, "Snakes And Ladders" is a solid addition to Gerry Rafferty's already impressive discography. It's the perfect soundtrack for lazy Sunday afternoons, long drives, or just kicking back with a glass of your favourite tipple. So grab a copy, turn up the volume, and let Gerry Rafferty take you on a musical journey you won't soon forget. Cheers to you, Mr. Rafferty, you've done it again.
