I have had this on cassette for longer than I care to remember. It has been played to death and so I have decided to get it again on CD. One sure thing you will enjoy is the various songs that litter this "concept" album. 5 Oclock in the morning is a classic in my opinion as is sailor with great vocals to add the the gizmo's incredible and unique sounds which even today would be difficult to match for their expression and subtlety. I can't finish this without saying that Peter Cook's narative binds the whole thing together nicely. An interesting tale and well worth a listen in its own right. As a triple album or double cassette it was very expensive but this version on CD is bound to be more cost effective. Its a shame that the gizmo disappeared but I am sure any budding musician with a flair for mechanics cound build one and try it themselves! Worth its five stars for the interest factor alone.

I've just listened to 'Consequences' by Godley/Creme, having just received the CD this morning, and what a fantastic journey through the emotions it was. My brother bought the triple album for £11 and I was fascinated by it as a 10 year old and now as a 35 year old it's brilliant to have it on CD. Kevin Godley is one of the grooviest British drummers ever. His feel and tastefulness behind a kit are second to non. The pair of them are incredibly talented and creative. 'Five o'clock In The Morning' is the hit single that never was. It's such a beautiful tune and the piano intro is gorgeous. 'Rosie' also caught me off guard today and put a lump in my throat - fantastic writing. Peter Cook is hilarious and the range of characters is brilliant. Laugh one minute, cry the next - wonderful stuff.

I was already a huge fan of 10CC when I saw Godley & Creme perform 'It's Five O'Clock In The Morning' on Top of the Pops. I decided to save my pocket money and buy 'Consequences' in its triple cassette format, a decision I have never regretted.
The eerie atmospherics of Disc One portrayed a world in constant flux, a world that had the power to destroy mankind. This was the ideological and musical backdrop to the Peter Cook 'play' on discs 2 & 3. The play was concerned with the finer details of a messy divorce, and the thoughts of Mr Blint, the strange occupant of the flat below the solicitor's office. Interspersed
are some of the most lyrical and imaginative songs ever written, my favourites being 'It's Cool Cool Cool in the Morning' and 'Lost Weekend' (Kevin Godley's superb duet with the inimitable Sarah Vaughan).

If you only buy one Godley & Creme CD this is it, although I would thoroughly recommend anything by this under-rated duo.

A lost gem now reissued
Consequences sounds at first like one of the worst excesses of '70s rock music: a triple, boxed-set concept album. Read more
