The Lost 45s UK - The Next Projected Sounds Of The Lost 45s Double 7” Vinyl Pack (iPURPLE! SOUND!)
potent brew of R'n'B and blue eyed soul
Leeds mod beat group The Lost 45s UK have once again simmered up a storming release, as all the tunes on this double pack 7" vinyl single are magnificent. Opening up with ‘GOD GIVEN', Nick Waters' sings his heart out on this stirring soul driven song. The Lost 45s UK career out a potent brew of R'n'B and blue eyed soul as Mick Ward's organ sound and Nick's own Stax style guitar licks, complement his superb singing. ‘GOD GIVEN' is a heartfelt song filled with passion and melody; a lushly crafted song beautifully sung.
A totally barmy tune
'PSYCHOTIC RHYTHM 'N BLUES' is a hurricane of huge drums and raw guitar power; and is an enjoyable juxtaposition to the soulful opening tune. 'PSYCHOTIC RHYTHM 'N BLUES' is a cauldron of chunky riffs, clashing chords and big bass as this Kinks / Pretty Things style garage rocker is one killer tune. This authentic mod stomp teen dance rave up is fired up with gusto. A totally barmy tune with great hey hey hey's on the backing vocals and the rock'n'roll riffing from Nick Waters is scintillating. 'Brain is running wild again, all mixed up inside again' , Nige Spencer's melancholic psychotic lyrics are nicely contrasted with the energetic mod maelstrom that is ‘Psychotic RnB‘
extremely satisfying
'TAKE YOUR TIME' is a powered up mod pop monster with ace ohhhs and ahhhs and magical harmonies washing all around, another winning number by the Lost 45s UK. Mick Ward belts out his huge voice with energy and melody, and yet again, Nick loosens out those virtuoso licks on his guitar, with Nige bubbling away on his grooving bass and Davey Fairbrother igniting the drums with his fire, a beauty of a tune!'GHOST IN THE NOONDAY SUN' ends this double vinyl pack on a moodier note, as this tune recalls The Zombies or Weller at his most contemplative. The smouldering melancholy of Nick Waters' vocals and the moody groove is an extremely satisfying way to end this superb double vinyl single in style.
