Our Take

Ah, the Wedding Present - a band so iconic, they can even make a live recording from 1967 sound fresh and invigorating. Their EP, "Live At The BBC 1967," is a delightful blast from the past that will transport you straight to the swinging sixties.

From the moment you press play, you'll be hit with a wave of nostalgia as the jangly guitars and lo-fi production take you back to a time when rock 'n' roll ruled the airwaves. The raw energy and passion of the band is palpable, and you can't help but be drawn in by their infectious enthusiasm.

Each track on the EP is a gem in its own right, but the standout moment has to be their cover of The Beatles' "A Hard Day's Night." The Wedding Present puts their own unique spin on the classic tune, injecting it with their trademark indie rock sound and a healthy dose of attitude.

Overall, "Live At The BBC 1967" is a must-listen for any fan of the Wedding Present or anyone looking to add a bit of retro flair to their music collection. So grab your fishtail parka and turn up the volume - this EP is guaranteed to get your toes tapping and your head nodding in no time. Indubitably, old chap.

Rating: 8.5/10

Verdict: A time capsule of pure musical delight from one of the indie rock scene's most beloved bands.

The Wedding Present

Ah, the Wedding Present. A band that has been around the block so many times, you would think they'd be tired by now. But no, these indie darlings just keep churning out bittersweet jangly pop gems that make you want to both dance and cry at the same time. Fronted by the ever-charming David Gedge, the Wedding Present have been a staple of the UK music scene since the mid-80s, when they burst onto the scene with their debut album, "George Best." Known for their witty lyrics, infectious melodies, and jangly guitar riffs, the band quickly gained a loyal following of fans who couldn't get enough of their unique blend of indie pop. Over the years, the Wedding Present have released a string of critically acclaimed albums, including "Seamonsters," "Watusi," and "Valentina." Their live shows are legendary, with Gedge's deadpan delivery and the band's energetic performances never failing to captivate audiences. With their latest album, "Going, Going..." the Wedding Present have shown that they still have plenty of creative energy left in the tank. The album is a sprawling, ambitious work that sees the band exploring new sonic territory while staying true to their signature sound. Whether you're a longtime fan or a newcomer to their music, the Wedding Present are a band that is sure to leave a lasting impression. So sit back, grab a pint, and let the music wash over you. You won't be disappointed.
