Strange that the reviews on Amazon so far have been duplicated for 'Liberation' and 'Promenade'. Yet perhaps not so strange, as they stand side-by-side as Neil Hannon's greatest works to date (not meaning to be critical of later recordings, but I'm a fan of theirs strictly in the retrospective sense). 'Death of a Supernaturalist', 'Europe by Train', and Wordsworth's 'Lucy' are wonderful, and it's one of my all time favourite - truly eccentric - albums. Hannon's latest album 'Victory for the Comic Muse' has its moments: a slight return to form and a considerable improvement on recent offerings. But he would perhaps benefit from locking himself away for a while and totally ignoring the influences of others - as it seemed he did here!

I'm a major fan of The Divine Comedy, having collected everything they've produced to date - with the exception of the best of compilation (A Secret History). This was the second album from Neil Hannon and friends and less well known than later outings, but for me is among Hannon's best work. Its not an instant listen, but the more you play, the more you get. Lightly orchestrated, and a little different (but certainly better than) the later, more commercialised offerings such as National Express etc. (what went wrong Neil?), but this is what the Divine Comedy do best. If you're tempted - dig this one out, its well worth a listen. And if you're out there Neil - more of this please!

Though not quite as good as some as some of his later stuff, this is still a great album for Neil Hannon to start out with. It features some truly fantastic songs such as 'Bernice bobs her hair', 'Three sisiters' and 'Europe by train', and there aren't any really bad ones. Admittedly, the re-recorded versions of 'Timewatching' and 'The pop singers fear of the pollen count' are better than these versions, but they're still good. All in all, a good perchase, but if you want absoloute brilliance, go for either 'Promenade' or 'Short album about love'.
