OCEAN COLOUR SCENE Saturday (2022 UK 14-track vinyl LP - The follow-up to 2007's 'On The Leyline', originally released in 2010: 'Saturday' finds the band as vibrantly tuneful as they've ever been. Recorded over six weeks last Summer at Rockfield studios with producer Gavin Monaghan [Editors, The Twang], it's a return to the barnstorming OCS of yore. From the opening bars of psych-folk opener '100 Floors Of Perception' - written by Simon about the on-going financial crisis - to epic climax 'Rockfield', it's a reminder than when it comes to delivering classic rock hooks there is simply no one better. Denim-driven boogie 'Old Pair Of Jeans' will delight those hankering for the full-tilt mod-pop of 'For Dancers Only', while 'Harry Kidnap' [written in tribute to John Weller] boasts shades of North Atlantic Drift stand-out 'Make The Deal'. Both sleeve and vinyl remain in Near Mint condition)
