Lol sings so pretty on this number.

My Favorite Echobelly album

They re-recorded it with Graham Gouldman on bass and released it as Festival: kzbin.info/www/bejne/p2aaXmN_r82Go9E

This takes way back to primary scholl..

# Never wanted many things, Except the chance to learn, From my mistakes Funny how you never learn, But know them when they, Come around again #

Brilliant

......and after all these years, I'm finally hearing the rest of the album. Shame on me!

A short lifetime ago, I would examine this album cover every time I was in the college book store. If you don't know, the cover is fun to peruse to see what was 'wrong with this picture.' I was a know it all college punk who thought he knew everything about the music scene thanks to Rolling Stone. What I didn't know was that Andrew was the master mind behind Linda Rondstadt's masterpiece, 'Heart Like a Wheel'. I'll always be a huge fan of 'Lonely Boy'. I could listen to that on a tape loop for an hour. Interesting fact: Andrew got to meet the Beatles when they went to the west coast on their first US trip. Andrew lived in an upper crust neighborhood and someone his parents knew hosted the Fab Four.

This album / song was my introduction to PW, thanks to Martin Vandyke of Detroit Npr for playing it, and I ended up buying the CD, falling in love with it and the rest is history!

I can't be beaten & I can't be bought

This one always haunted me

"Hotel" is literally indistinguishable from a Tally Hall song.

This is the last album i bought before going off to university at 18. I was socially inept and absolutely terrified about being away from home, consequently that first year was very lonely and stressful. Echobelly, along with Elvis Costello, Suede and Sugar, helped me through those times and i eventually got the confidence to form some really beautiful friendships which are strong even now, 30 years later. So many memories encoded within these excellent lyrics and punchy melodic guitar pop. ❤

brilliant

Que discazooo,quedara siempre de toda la musica que escuche en mi vida en mi corazon❤❤❤❤❤

Thanks for that. Got this on cd when it came out, but just listened here for first time in a while. Still so good. 👍

10 10 jamie

Never heard this album and I could almost predict every lyrics

Я вообще люблю 10cc! Слушаю очень часто, и они не надоедают!

A very good album, includes some great songs like these Angel B Here Comes The Big Rush Iris Art The World Is Flat

Timeless debut from 1994.

All killer, no filler, for my money the best 90s Britpop album. I was fortunate enough to interview the band when they played Detroit touring this album when I was a college radio DJ. Sonya was very charming and witty, pointing out how ants were crawling out of the mixing board when they were recording the album, and what not. We had quite a few laughs. 'Twas a jolly good time!

Kevin said they used their Prototype Gizmo on this album. What tracks did they use it on?

What songs on this album features the Gizmotron? Kevin Godley said they used it for the first time on here.

It’s such a shame that enjoyable albums full of talented songs no longer exist. 10cc were such a great underrated band reflecting a better time

Their song" I' m not in love makes me weeping until now, 68.

Золотой фонд рок музыки 70-х годов XX - го века.

Masterpiece???

:)

More than incredible wow and thise lyrics, are so intelligent and on point. I still love them so xx

Top song from the Top Man

So good 🧡

I saw Sparks in Glasgow recently ,, absolutely brilliant ,, my Son went to see them in Tokyo ,, same opinion.

I have never heard such a unique and interesting approach to song making and it still manages to sound simple and catchy

Brilliant. Great band. Saw them live in June '23... so good

I love the 1979 version but don't like this one. The '79 version flowed more than this. The beat was better

1st listen to the early godley and cream, that's really cool, because I had no idea. I'm 51 and love music. This one has slipped until today. Never even seen the album. Thanks 🎉 posting this

superb album

Who was playing bass,this was before graham

Embryonic 10cc without a doubt.

LoveThis

The start of a fabulous sequence of outstanding songs.

The JS version is interesting. The Sparks version misses the point. This was Sparks and Giorgio Moroder. He had just invented electronic dance music. Donna Summer I Feel Love then this. His influence has gone in this version which is very sad.

This is the album that introduced me and got me into britpop. Gene singles were the next step and then I was all in.

play it at 1.25 speed for best results

I remember when this song first came out, didn't think it could get any better. Wow, great Sparks, and big fan of Jimmy Summerville too
