Beavis pachtet hier gleich den Rhythmus, bei dem jeder mit muss - und Andy erweitert seine schier unnachahmliche Vokalkunst wie so oft hier mit eigenen Chorstimmen. He hadn’t planned to make another album, but the lockdown had created the situation that he says left him thinking, “Why not?

FLANG DANG oozes with the kind of blues, country, and gospel that Andy has made his own; a style once described as a “prayer without pretension in every infectious song.In härterer Gangart schüttelt Low einen weiteren Ohrwurm aus dem Ärmel - sollte seinen Vorbilden, jenen Londoner Rolling Stones, noch jemals solch eine Spätsingle gelingen - eine No. Flang Dang is Andy's first solo album since 2006 - After an interval of sixteen years, here he is again at his sweet and soulful musical best with the kind of record that will surely delight his fans. don’t get me wrong; I’m a Music Snob and revel in such albums that sometimes need Poirot or Vera to unravel the mysteries therein; but sometimes I just crave music that is ….

But the band I was to join pulled out so my visit to the legendary Rockfield studios didn't happen, but Andy did and during these sessions we did an interview together anyway about his amazing career and this new album. When I was about 14 I once bought an LP which had Amen Corner on one side and The Small Faces on the other and as my Record Collection was in its infancy, I played the Hell out of it!I wish I had the vocabulary to describe Andy Fairweather Low’s singing style; but everything I try to use sounds ‘wrong’ and ‘critical’ ….

Every song on the album was written by Andy and oozes with the blues and gospel style that he has made his own.

Auf seinem brandneuen Studioalbum FLANG DANG - in herrlicher Wortwitztradition von LA BOOGA ROOGA oder MEGA SHEBANG - zelebriert er diese und andere frische Kompositionen jedoch fast im Alleingang: zurückgekehrt in die Waliser Rockfield-Studios, in denen er bereits Ende der Sixties unter anderem mit Dave Edmunds zauberte.
