I thought that Nigel Tufnel was the name of a band member in the wonderful spoof rockumentary ‘This Is Spinal Tap’!
But that may have been another Nigel!

This is great stuff, John, thanks for the tip. “A little more Steve Earle, a little less heroin” indeed!

Bought this out of sheer curiousity after a review. Don’t usually look in the ‘folk’ section.

Nothing to do with Philip Glass’ Ahknaten I guess. A favourite of mine.
I’ll give the Halsall a listen, thanks for posting.

Just put this on and immediately transported back to 1976 - at that time one of only a dozen albums I owned. I know it inside out as you did in those days.
Lovely guitar work from Tim Renwick and superb song songwriting from Al.

This was the first JJ album I heard. On the Alexis Korner show. Bought it immediately and then went back and then forward with all JJs records. I miss intelligent radio programmes like Mr Korner’s.
