Flang Dang

Product Information

But; there’s another song that captured my attention the first day I played the album, and yesterday found myself subconsciously turning the volume up, in the car …. Ein weiterer waffenscheinpflichtiger Groove wird mit einem Zungenbrecher gekoppelt: "You can vip-vop and Be-Bop and shout Bam-a-lam", heißt es in "Looking Down", und es brennt die Hütte. Another oddity here is the way Andy Fairweather Low slips and slides seamlessly between genres without jarring styles; which is why the Skiffle beat of Too Many Friends still works although juxtaposed between the punchy swing of Keep Your Faith and the Bluebeat/Lovers Rock melody that pervades through Looking Down and all sound like close relations courtesy of Andy Fairweather Low’s singing.

He hadn’t planned to make another album, but the lockdown had created the situation that he says left him thinking, “Why not?

I wish I had the vocabulary to describe Andy Fairweather Low’s singing style; but everything I try to use sounds ‘wrong’ and ‘critical’ ….

Every song on the album was written by Andy and oozes with the blues and gospel style that he has made his own.

FLANG DANG oozes with the kind of blues, country, and gospel that Andy has made his own; a style once described as a “prayer without pretension in every infectious song. Andy's straightforward and often powerful lyrics greet the uncertainties and sorrows of life with a missive to get up and “Stand Up” in the light, and above all, to keep faith with oneself.The album was written, produced and performed by Andy, who plays all of the instruments here with the exception of the drums, deftly handled by Low Riders band member Paul Beavis. The solo albums like the classic Spider Jiving, the incredible out put of superb songs, to these days with his own band The Low Riders.
