Nick Lowe - ‘Impossible Bird’, one of the great vocal albums.
Never managed to see him live, he is one of the few artists who improved with age.Great album. Saw Nick live round about this time in the Aberdeen Music Hall on his own with an acoustic guitar - a great raconteur and performer.
Bought the CD the other day - where is the lovely dynamic range of the originals? If it wasn't 2nd hand I'd send it back.
Epic – 504469 2000, 2002.
The ones on London Town?Yup, sadly those remasters have been squashed to death - and Infected and Soul Mining don't have the extra tracks.

You’re just showing off nowActually I’ve just remembered I also saw him with Ry Cooder -therefore half of Little Village - in Edinburgh in 2009 - that was a superb pairing where they had Ry’s son on drums and they did a mixture of their own and LV’s songs.
I can’t believe I didn’t recall that concert first!!
I’m actually not so keen on his most recent Los Straitjacket stuff but the Brentford trilogy is superb.
