 Rating: - Williams-Fairey Band - lovebox weekender!!!I'd never heard of this band before the Lovebox Weekender. I like most types of music, so happily sat down to listen...they were playing "old skool" house music!!! I was in my element!! Absolutely excellent, which is why I am now on this site about to purchase their album!!! Rating: - Seen it, heard it, love it!Acid House meets brass band seems weird, but really works. I saw the Williams Fairey band playing an Acid Brass set at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival a few years ago. No amplification necessary: they were LOUD. Some of the people in the audience obviously thought it was a joke ... until the band started to play. A lot of the brass-band followers weren't quite sure what to make of it, but the acid house crowd loved it. One of the most enjoyable live gigs I've ever been to. Don't play it in the background, wind up the volume and revel in the sheer power and musicality of one of the best brass bands in the country playing music you actually want to hear. Rating: - What a winner!My boyfriend and I first heard 'Voodoo Ray' playing as some ambient background music in 'Loungelover'. After finding out that it was by the Williams Fairey Band I decided to buy it for my boyfriend as a bit of a "Do you remember this from Valentine's Day?" novelty gift. He loved it and has played Voodoo Ray back to back for what seems like an eternity! As if this isn't enough he is now trying to convert all of his mates - and they are coming round, slowly. It is a truly great cd. If you weren't to know the tracks they sound like great melodies, well played, by a brass band. Ideal for a bit of background music when you've got mates over for dinner. Better still don't tell them what it is as when it finally dawns on them 'I know this ...

Old club anthems from my youth where I frantically waved my arms around, blowing my whistle suddenly became melodic and strangely relaxing. I recommend this to anyone who wants to hear a new slant on those ACCCCIIIIIIIDDDD days. I want them to produce a Happy House Brass next with classic anthems such as Gat Decors Passion and Shine On!! Rating: - WonderfulOnce in a while something comes along that you reckon must be well worth getting "for a laugh". I bought this album for that sole reason. Hell, the thought of Cubic 22 blasted out by a colliery band? Truly beautiful. But then something happened - I listened to the full album and realised that it wasn't just a laugh, it is something else. It's wonderful. Eighties house anthems played with real power and emotion by a brass band. An album of tracks that reminds us that music isn't all about being genre specific, that the ludicrous record store racks of categories and sub-categories serve only to create legions of music fans that grow up blinkered to a true love of music. This album isn't about cynically combining two over hyped ... Read More: |
