| | Real Tuesday Weld Return Of The Clerkenwell Kid CD Real Tuesday Weld Discography of CDs
On his second album for Six Degrees, the Real Tuesday Weld (aka Stephen Coates) takes up his alter ego of the Clerkenwell Kid in full form. The fare is primarily in the realm of ballads, but thoroughly built upon sampling, looping, and keyboard arrangements. The end result is in many cases like a more contemporary Serge Gainsbourg, with beats and grooves mixed in here and there. It's a relatively airy affair, if somewhat somber at times. It's a fitting mood for what would seem to be an album motivated in large part by lost love and reminiscence. The entirety of the album is slick and well engineered, with nary a beat out of place. Not quite at the over-produced level of ultra-lounge, but somewhere between retro-lounge and ultra-lounge at least. Very nice ambient music for the background of a long drive. ~ Adam Greenberg
Photographer: Paul Heartfield.
The Real Tuesday Weld: Stephen Coates.
Personnel: Mara Carlyle (vocals); Clive Painter (mandolin, keyboards); Jacques VanRhijn (clarinet, background vocals); Pierre Duplan (background vocals).
Magnet (p.108) - "17 tracks of gorgeous cabaret-tronica....Like Stephen Merritt, Coates knows that to love is to die a little, but with CLERKENWELL KID, he thumbs his nose at the reaper."

Return Of The Clerkenwell Kid songs
$19.55
Originally released in 1989 on David Prescott's very small U.S. independent Generations Unlimited label, this CD is much more than the standard backward look at the early, formative work of a mature artist. Indeed, this is already a mature work, even though it came early in Dimuzio's professional career. The ten pieces in the program more or less run into (and out of) each other, but entirely different effects can be achieved by activating the random play button ...

Return Of The Clerkenwell Kid album
$17.39
Nick Garvey and Andy McMaster first worked together as members of Ducks Deluxe, one of the tougher and more rollicking bands to emerge from the British pub rock scene, so when punk rock raised the ante on volume and attitude by the time their next band, the Motors, released their first album in 1977, they were more than willing to meet the challenge. While The Motors 1 is a long way from punk rock, it certainly reflects what many pub rock refugees learned from punk -- namely, keep playing straight-ahead rock tunes, but kick up the volume and tempo and forget trying to sound like the Band. The Motors 1 kicks off with the superb "Dancing the Night Away," an excellent fusion of pop melody with big guitar firepower, and the song is so effective that it sets a standard the rest of the disc can't quite match. But they do come close in spots, especially on the cranked-up "Phoney Heaven" and the Springsteen-esque "Bring in the Morning Light," while the neo-reggae lurch of "Cold Love" confirms these guys didn't have to limit themselves to four-square rock & roll. Nick Garvey and Bram Tchaikovsky are a formidable guitar combination on this album, while Rick Slaughter's drumming is sharply energetic and Andy McMaster is a truly valuable point man on bass, keyboards, and guitars. The Motors 1 is a fine set of meat-and-potatoes rock & roll played with the right amount of sweat and more smarts and craft than you might expect -- if more pub rockers had made records like this earlier in the 1970s, Johnny Rotten and Joe Strummer might have had to find something else to rebel against. ~ Mark Deming
