Solid return,
By
This review is from: Notes & Rhymes (Limited 2 Disc Edition) (Audio CD)
The Proclaimers always seem capable of surprising me with a good album just when I had decided that they hold no relevance for me. As with their last release this took a couple of listens, but Notes and Rhymes is a solid album and doesn't mess with their winning formula. Its more Hit The Highway than Born Innocent if you are familiar with their past works.'Love Can Move Mountains' is a great track as is 'I Know' Disc Two has 4 acoustic tracks, highlighting just how good they are as an unacompanied duo, plus 6 great live tracks. If you are buying the new album then its well worth the extra few quid. If you are new to The Proclaimers, their 'best of' is a great place to start, and their 'Restless Soul' album is their best and this, while good does not hit the same consistent standard as some of their previous works, but is still a good album.

The Proclaimers at their best,
By
This review is from: Notes & Rhymes (Audio CD)
Most Proclaimers albums are formualaic, and I don't mean that in a bad way. They typically have one song about drinking, one about sex, one about love, one about the death of a loved one, one that's just a bit of fun, and one antitwar/political. Usually they are a good mix of upbeat foot-tappers and beautiful and moving tracks. This album is all that, fun, sad, uplifting, political, topical, thought-provoking. I had a tear in my eye at one point (although that might have been hayfever). When I wasn't crying I was smiling. On the strength of this album they have overtaken Muse as my second favourite band (The Eels are still my favourite band, but if the Proclaimers keep turning out albums like this who knows)

The Good Ol Boys Do It Again,
By Lochman (Lochearnhead, Scotland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Notes & Rhymes (Limited 2 Disc Edition) (Audio CD)
It usually takes some time for an album to grow on me and I've only had this for a couple of weeks as yet but I think I'm going to like it a lot. If you're looking for something new here, you may be disappointed, but if you like what Craig & Charlie have done before, this is for you. It's good value, too, with a second disc offering some acoustic versions from live gigs. Some artists (like Eric Clapton) tend to produce their best work live and I think Craig & Charlie fall into this category but, having said that, the Rockfield Acoustic Session was a disappointment. It seemed to lack the verve and sparkle that normally characterises a Proclaimers gig. However, the Edinburgh Castle set makes up for it and is worth the second CD all on its own. There's some very singable stuff here. If you've heard the boys before and liked what you heard, live a little and lash out a few quid on this. You won't regret it!
