5.0 out of 5 stars down at the last chance saloon, 6 Feb 2003
By james C (manchester, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
Return to the Last Chance Saloon, second album from erstwhile indie stalwarts the Bluetones, is a simple must-buy for any fan if you haven't already got it. even if you aren't, buy it, i guarantee you wont be sorry!

Released in 1997, the album is a move in a different musical direction from debut offering "Expecting to Fly", dispensing with the trademark jangle of Adam Devlin's Rickenbacker into a more
rock-like sound.

There is an apparent wild-west/mexican feel to the album, said to have come about during liberal consumption of tequila during its recording, reflected in top notch single "solomon bites the worm", a clever take on the poem "solomon grundy". I find difficulty in finding any bad tracks on the album, as they all stand out in their own way, although ...If, Sleazy Bed Track and Down At The Reservoir are personal highlights.

As previously said, fans expecting a continuing theme from Expecting to Fly maybe disappointed... but i doubt it. CLASS!

5.0 out of 5 stars The word 'brilliant' sums up the album. A must buy!!!, 3 April 2001
By andypjones@hotmail.com (Birmingham, England) - See all my reviews
I would say this is a great album. My favourite music is indie, and this is just class. I really recommend this, especially track number 8 'jub-jub bird'. Just excellant vocals and instrumental work.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant, as always, 25 May 2004
The Bluetones are without doubt the most underrated band in the world. So underrated that many people don't include them in lists of underrated bands because they've never heard of them! Their debut album 'Expecting to Fly' remains one of my favourite ever albums, even after listening to it regularly for about 4 years but 'Return to the Last Chance Saloon' is equally as good, in my opinion.

I bought this album in 1999, a year after it was released and I listened to it on my stereo from start to finish. It absolutely blew me away, especially the amazing 'If...', which is probably my all-time favourite song. The album has some other absolute gems, including: 'Solomon Bites the Worm', 'Sleazy Bed Track', '4-day Weekend', 'Jub-Jub Bird', 'Down at the Reservoir', 'Broken Starr' and the brilliant 'Ames'. But you'll struggle to find a bad song on the album, because basically, The Bluetones don't write bad songs - they just can't do it.

Anyway, buy this album and while you're buying this, get 'Expecting to Fly' and you might as well buy the superb 'Science and Nature' while you're at it. Infact, just get them all - give the band the recognition they deserve!
