Yeh Yeh Yeahhh!!!


Been listening to the demos of the newly recorded Yeh Yeh stuff. They are head and shoulders above the 80s recorded stuff. They sound really fresh and are really 79/80 sounding too. Shades of The Jam, the Vapors and Squire I reckon. The first track Dont Try To Deceive Me is a real groovalong power popper, Mr. Jones is a Smithers Jones style story of middle class mundanity and the last track Feeling Lonely In A Crowd is maybe the best of all three. I spoof you not, they are all excellent. Yer'd swear it was an undiscovered 79/80 band!
MM and Simpa what do you both think?
I reckon if this is the quality of the rest of the album, we're all in fer a treat!

What do I think?
I agree wholeheartedly mate - the songs really do sound like a mix between the best of 79 and the best of 85!

In a word - BRILLIANT emoticon

Hello Simpa. You well?

Yeah yer right about the NBZ sound. I dont think Andy would mind that either. Seven Bells always reminded me of em. The new stuff is just really good authentic sounding mod power-pop, like a bunch of energetic whippersnappers in the fresh blush of youth, which we all know is the complete opposite of Arthritic Andy. emoticon Yer know I'm only joshin young Andy! emoticon
I think Andy's due back in the next day or two, be interesting to hear his views on our views eh?

Hi guys! Back from the US of feckin' A this morning and what can I say? Thanks for the comments, I can honestly say (on behalf of the lads and meself) that we're bowled over by the positive feedback. We'll carry on with the rest of the album and keep you informed of the progress.

I'm well chuffed with the NBZ comparison.

I now need to sleep ZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzz!!!


Andy

P.S. Got the first order from the US last week.

WAHOOOO!!!!

Simpa,

sales of the 1st CD haven't been overly brilliant to date (yourselves, a few others plus a couple from the US) but then that's to be expected when you look at how limited the advertising has been. The good news is that Dizzy is going to add the 1st to his catalogue and we'll be sending him a copy of the 2nd CD demos that you guys have, so hopefully things will pick up.

The recording's going really well at the moment. We've started the 5th track which is going to be a Northern Soul tribute song. We actually started writing it back in '85 but never finished it before the band split (I left that is!). I'll send you guys (you know who you are) demos of tracks 4 & 5 when 5 is finished.

Thanks for keeping the interest.

Marvlyus, cant wait me! I reckon most people who have the single will be interested in the first cd, so Detour should add a few sales eh? emoticon

Could I have mine with tracks 1,2&3 on it also, so I can get the full effect of how the album is gonna be from start to finish?
   If you PM me or e-mail me with your address (again)I will send you a cheque for a couple of quid to cover the P&P.
  Many Thanks Andy.
