A classic cracker of an album. From the first tune "With No Shoes" the warbling of Burgess and the multi-layered musical backing provides a laid back rock out. For a band who experienced so much just before releasing the album that fact that its so good and polished is amazing. The death of member Rob Collins was a big blow but they retained the Hammond sound that is such a big part of their music. The superlative "One To Another" has to be one of the best tunes of the 90's. This is the band at the height of their powers and the depth of their despair. The Charlatans are criminaly under-rated in the music press and attract little attention. But one listen to their music is all that's needed to become a fan. They're still around long after many of their more highly lauded contemporaries have disappeared. Quite simply superb and well worth a listen. For anyone who likes British guitar bands then you must own this album.

...it's now 4 years since tellin's tories release and it still sounds as good as it did back then. I've been a life long charlatans fan and now that they are getting on a bit and the tempo is slowing down, I always love the fact that this album reminds of the pace and drive they have. It oozes style, groove, and plain brilliant ability, this is a true reflection of what the best indie band ever in the uk can do. Spiewak jackets, puma trainers and the hair anyone? The good old days

I've already written a short review of this album but its brilliance warrants another tribute.
I can't work out why the Charlatons were never as big as the Stone Roses. They have a charismatic front man and their songs are vibrant and original but they are criminally ignored by critics and record buyers alike.
If you know nothing about the Charlatons then this is an excellent place to start. Earlier albums are very good but the influences are plain to see.
It is extremely rare to listen to a CD and to get knocked out by each successive track. - With No Shoes,North Country Boy,Tellin Stories,One to Another,How High - All excellent songs filled with depth,sincerity , power & humour.

A great rock album
I would say this is probably the least Charlatans-esque of their albums. It is a great rock album, helped by their trademark keyboards. Read more
