McLean's second album, released January 2009 "IN THE LAND OF OO-BLA-DEE" does not disappoint. As a follow up to his first, "CLICHES (FOR ANOTHER DAY)", the writing and playing from this powerful and multifaceted performer is very refreshing.

Hamish Stuart - Real Live
|
|
Our Price: £10.79 Inc VAT
|
|
|
What takes Robbie Williams, Cher, Tom Jones, Bonnie Raitt and numerous other celebs, musicians and a hard core regular crowd to that basement club in Chelsea, the 606, once a month?
Answer: The Hamish Stuart Band!
Recorded over 2 nights in February 2000, "Real Live" takes us on a funky, melodic and soulful journey from '72 to 2000. The band contains some of the hottest, most in-demand players in the UK - Snake Davis (saxes), Ian Thomas (drums), Steve Pearce (bass), Jody Linscott (percussion), Andy Wallace (keyboards) and Adam Phillips (guitar). A great ensemble where everybody gets a chance to shine, like Adam and Ian do back to back on Person to Person, Steve already having made his statement on the intro, Jody adding beautiful colours here and there and Andy and Snake doing the solo honours on Work to Do and Reach You.
