STATE OF OUR UNION (+BONUS)
THE LONG RYDERS
- Ref. XL730G
- CHERRY RED RECORDS, 2018. Enregistrement 1985.
In America, if Love were The Beatles then The Long Ryders were The Smiths. Where Love were pushing the boundaries of what was possible in the folk and early country-rock fields The Long Ryders learned from their mistakes and refined the sound that then allowed bands like R.E.M. and the rest of the post-Paisley Underground renaissance to deconstruct and reinvent again. Pick up any of the best-of compilations released every few years and you would be forgiven for thinking theirs is a back catalogue awash with sunshine melodies and layers of chorus effects but dig a little deeper into their albums (in this case their Rubber Soul and Revolver; or should that be their Meat Is Murder and The Queen Is Dead) and you see a winsome approach to post-punk and politics that disappointingly settles into mediocre MOR as we witness a band run out of ideas a little too quickly.
