This one too. Doesn't really work for them tbh. They were best as a Echo & the Bunnymen homage.

Easy to identify the vocals of Paul Marsh in a crowd; easy on the ears, 'tis.

I liked the Mighty Lemon Drops first two (three? does Out of Hand count?) albums, with World Without End being the clear winner. I still have those three on vinyl. Kind of lucked into them back in Reno after we started dealing in used stuff at Tower.

I'd still the Railway Children over them, just on the strength of Reunion Wilderness.

If anyone cares, I did a short top five list years ago of my favorite underrated jangle albums on my blog (of which Reunion Wilderness is #3).

the lemon drops never did the baggy thing.
they just did the slow song/fast song thing.
