Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Lucky Jim are a Brighton-based duo, comprising Edinburgh-born Gordon Graham and native Brightonian Ben Townsend. Our Troubles End Tonight, their first album, was written, performed and produced by the pair. On the strength of this remarkable early showing, it must be fervently hoped that Graham and Townsend never fall out over a borrowed guitar lead--not until they've produced a few more albums of this high standard. It would be fair to assume that when Graham and Townsend met, they discovered a shared appreciation for Bob Dylan's "Blood on the Tracks", The Waterboys' "Fisherman's Blues", the works of Tindersticks and, especially, Lee Hazlewood. From these influences, Lucky Jim have alchemised a fine collection of songs, elegantly played and sung, and produced to sound just as cracked and faulty as the hearts of their narrators: the knelling waltz "Leah" is a particular highlight. Mournful, wry and bleakly funny, Our Troubles End Tonight is a tremendous debut. --Andrew Mueller
