Sony Jordan: the Comeback

1990's 'Jordan: The Comeback' is a lovely collection of 19 tracks and weighs in at a mighty 64 minutes in length. Although 'Jordan' is regarded as a concept album I suspect that only the marvellous Paddy McAloon, the wizard of composition, can fully explain what the concept is. Anyway, lovers of beautifully crafted pop music, encompassing a wide variety of different styles, should really enjoy this highly imaginative LP. Recommended.

The Sprout go proper 80s pop, over the course of what used to called a 'double album'. Of course, the songs are the work of Paddy McAloon, so there some truly sublime moments. And some of it sounds like Dollar.

great

Great cd at very good price

Their best album by far.

Jordan is a songwriting/recording tour de force. When Paddy Macaloon is inspired he writes, when he composed this he wrote to inspire.On J.T.C. Paddy lets loose on a range of conspiracy theories, theological debates and serious eccentricities - and that's just the lyrics! Musically literate; the composers arrangements are often sublime and his studio nous leaves your ears straining to catch whats going on deep in the mix. As someone once remarked 'each song has 3 more ideas trying to get out'.So whats the category? Classic pop I guess

I thought I would have Paddys masterpiece on CD as I have a small crackle on my original vinyl.

I bought this on cassette tape many years ago. So pleased to have it on CD now.
