this album is so utterly classic. some of my favorite production ever, and even on the cheesy preachy sentimental songs, Face somehow manages to sound sincere and make me care.

just found a sealed copy of "on my block" b/w "guess who's back" in my vinyl collection

if you spin this record in the summer and don't feel it then congratulations you are 100% dead inside

This album is impossible* to get. I must have listened to Guess Who's Back like a bazillion times though, back when my music listening consisted of taping the tracks Westwood played and listening to nothing else (except also what Trevor Nelson/Dreem Team also played) all week.

*ok, have not looked that hard.

silly ho (a hoy hoy), Thursday, 19 March 2009 23:04 (fifteen years ago) link

i see from the amazon review that it has "catchy piano riffs, deep jazz tunes and mellow baselines (sic)."
oh well, that's another £15 saved then.

Up through "In Between Us" this is pretty much better than anything else.

clotpoll, Friday, 20 March 2009 18:17 (fifteen years ago) link

the piano line in "My Block" has been stuck in my head since i got up this morning

better that than the piano line from "Allure" i guess

dont get that post -- 'my block' is a great piano line to have in your head

allure isnt really a bad song either imo

@diplo DUB STEP!! GET DA FUCK UP!!! (deej), Monday, 23 March 2009 21:38 (fifteen years ago) link

"my block" is def the best song on this album, followed closely by "guess who's back." i don't think I've listened to this album in like 4 years though

never really loved it

dont get that post -- 'my block' is a great piano line to have in your head

allure isnt really a bad song either imo
