. Ole Tarantula
Search: Tarantula
by: Robyn Hitchcock & The Venus 3
Release Date October 02, 2006
Robyn Hitchcock is one of UK music's most enduring cult artists. With an extensive back catalogue stretching back aeons, RH can at least claim longevity in the bizz if not commercial success.
Why so ? Could be the fact that quirky compositions, workmanlike musician ship and in this case, the backing of competent contemporaries such as REM's Peter Buck, are no substitute for real talent.
Ole Tarantula sounds so lightweight and bland. 60/70's sounding ditties clogging up the grooves like candyfloss.
This could be some forgotten album by an equally forgotten 60's pop group that released two albums before splitting and becoming teachers and second hand car salesmen.
Not good !
