Richard Hawley's New Album
Permalink  
 

What does everyone think? I am digging it, a really good album. It's received great reviews too.

I notice on NME that the album was inspired by the death by Hawley's best friend. I suspect this was the same friend whose passing led to Pulp's reunion.

The album is a very fitting tribute.

Tim McCall, yeah. Replaced Hawley as the guitarist in Jarvis' solo band and as you say, was also responsible to some degree, maybe fully, for Pulp getting back together.

Haven't heard the album yet, looking forward to over the weekend.

He was on Later, I only saw the short version of the programme with the single, but very enjoyable. He was interviewed on Steve Lamacq where he talked about Tim a a bit, his "guitar buddy" and the album being much more oriented around the music and more guitar-y, rather than the more song-writing focus of his previous albums.

I just don't get it, his music doesn't do anything for me at all it just leaves me cold. He's a great guy and I love hearing and seeing him interviewed but I have no time for his music at all. I never liked The Longpigs neither!

It's a really nice thing of him to honor Tim but.. going mad on guitars is not the way to do it.

Why not? It's what they did together when growing-up.

some things are best enjoyed in small parts, guitars included. I have no doubt that the feelings are real I'm just not so keen on the result.
