CD REVIEW - KING OF WOOLWORTHS

Great name: King of Woolworths. What does that conjure up for you? Pick and mix sweeties? Cheap 7 inchers? "L'Illustration Musicale" is nothing like the Woolworths we have here in SE27. It's smooth and sophisticated. No Saturday girls pulling chewing gum out of their mouths or crinklies picking up cut price toys for the grandkids. Sounds like? Er, try Brian Wilson, (the good bits of) St Etienne, Montgolfier Bros, Air, Broadcast or even Add N to X out of Moby. Thankfully, the King doesn't write music for car commercials. Neither will you see him selling Harry Potter videos.
