4.0 out of 5 stars Ryding High, 7 Jul 2003
By A Customer
Lets get the bad bad news out the way first, Its nowhere near as good as Black Grapes 'Its great when your Straight'. Now on to the good news, Shaun Ryder is still alive and hes made us a new album, and jolly good it is too. As per normal, hes had alot of outside help, but its all come together to produce a fine album. Its more Happy Mondays than Black grape, with alot of dance music mixed in with guitars. But most importantly, Mr Shaun William Ryder, as hes now called, is still a lyrical Genius. Telling surreal storys, which are more than likely true. At the moment my faviourite track is 'Clowns' were Shaun tells us 'I Don't want to be beaten to death by clowns, unless you give me pounds and pounds and pounds'.

What more do you want from an album???

2.0 out of 5 stars dissapointing, 28 Jun 2004
i brought this from amazon having been a big happy mondays fan and an even bigger black grape fan, but this is like neither, its dare i say very poor in places, and never really kicks in to any kind of rythm, all the songs are dull, long and very little actually ever seems to happen in them, i am very,very dissapointed by this album after expecting so much from the ryder-tiger. ah well, hopefully he'll bounce back 2 form in a black grape-esque style like he did in 96 next time round. maybe other people like it, but for me shaun ryders always made upbeat music, or at least slightly dancy, this album fails to ever grasp me and i feel the more i listen 2 it the more i want 2 switch it off, which is the complete opposite to every other shaun ryder record i own, it gets the 2 stars simple because its him, if this was an unknown it would most certainly get a 1 star rating

4.0 out of 5 stars AMATUER NITE IS DOUBLE BIG TOP, 11 Jan 2005
By Mr. S. Spoors "STEVIE DUB" (SUNDERLAND,ENGLAND.) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
What can I say?Its not as good as BUMMED or PILLS,THRILLS AND BELLYACHES but then again its not as bad as YES...PLEASE either(the only decent track on YES...PLEASE is STINKIN THINKIN)The tracks on this album arent so much songs as spoken word set on top of kinda funkybaggychillout music.I really like it but I think it only really appeals to SHAUN RYDER fans,the casual music fan or those expecting MADCHESTER pt2 I think on the whole would be disapointed.I recomend playing it late at night after having a nice cup of cocoa (or maybe summit a little stronger) and gettin yourself all relaxed and ,err,openminded."subliminal messages man".
