If anyone was expecting a country flavour to the Rossi/Rickard material, well here it is! Yee-hah! This seems to be the way of things nowadays. Drip feed album tracks pre-release, mainly for the streaming market. Very much cheaper than the old vinyl or CD single promotion. Music companies must think they've died and gone to heaven. Outlay nil for any return they happen to get. All three of the songs we have are available on iTunes as well. This isn't really my cup of cookie. But it is what it is. Might have fitted nicely on Ain't Complaining or Perfect Remedy. Quo fans' favourite albums Maybe it'll grow on me.

[br Sounds more Thirsty Work to me....another favourite! 😉 This isn't Francis' own solo album that he has recorded is it? This is an extra/different one he worked on with Hannah. I was surprised that he has written most of the songs, I originally thought it was more her album that he was lending a hand with. I won't judge this as a 'Francis Rossi' solo album. It's not unpleasant, just not really my sort of thing. Will give it a few listens on Amazon music, and will probably end up buying the cd at some point when I can afford it.

This, to me, sounds more fresh and interesting than the others i've heard on account of the fact that Rossi and Hannah are singing the same notes but in a different octave range. It gives it a slight edge, a little bit different from the norm.
Not sure if i particularly like it mind you, but it holds my interest a bit more because it's vocally more unusual.
And, it's unashamedly country. It's not half-assed, watered down, trying to be but wanting not to be seen to be, country as Francis often does. This is pure generic stuff and it doesn't seem to be afraid to be so.
Still don't know if i like it though!

I definitely wouldn't want a Quo lite album from this pairing. Won't listen to more tunes now though and instead will wait these few more days till I'm able to listen to all songs in the context of the album.

The country market is huge - and lucrative. But also saturated. It's the 'off the wall' type country that's getting the attention more than the traditional stuff. I imagine this is just a labour of love and he appears to be promoting the book a bit more than the album. Not sure what Hannah will think of that. I've listened to snippets of every track - they were available for a while - and it's largely a country flavoured album but not exclusively. As the first song has already indicated. I haven't ordered the CD yet and was going to just pick it up from the one music store left in Edinburgh ("Fopp"). I can get the book at the same time.
