Hard to fault this album from start to finish, no weak links song wise certainly. From the very first second when we have a great build-in to the album, you know you are in for a fast, whirling, spin through the land that is Manchester Indie. ALL the songs are excellent, though those released from it certainly rank at the very top. It is also a great album because they kept their roots alive and showed how far you can come with simple, but effective guitar work and a fusion with organ-play - combining all the great ingredients of a timeless classic. This album converted many people back to British music and was there at the beginning of the Britpop explosion....... Still this album's popularity persists and it is, rightly, considered the best Charlatan album to date - well I think so anyway!

The self titled Charlatans album is a quality album from the band which came out while I was at University. I saw them live in Liverpool and it is still one of my favourite gigs. There are so quality tunes on this album from the band and I do enjoy the keyboard work from Rob Collins, who sadly died in a car accident (replaced by Martin Duffy at the gig I attended who is also a wizard on the Hammond.)
They are well worth a listen if you liked the Manchester bands of the era or Brit pop in the mid 90's. Don't buy it, keep it for 15 years then bin it like my mate did...give it a go again!

Don't know what on earth this last guy was on on about...the album is terrific, with less deep & disturbed edges than previous or subsequent albums, it's a fun trip, great melodies, great album. Tracks through to 'Tell Everyone' are terrific, it tails off a little in the last few songs hence only 4 stars, but this is a great album no doubt.
