Bustin’ Out The Spreadsheet

Reviews

• Nick Simper’s Fandango: Future Times Shark / lnterford 148.506: Germany: 1980. My German is not very good (well, non-existant really), but there does seem to be second album out by Simper’s current band. As the first LP (‘Slipstreaming’, reviewed some time ago) was poorly received, we thought the band had just fizzled out, but it looks as if they might have gone to ground in Europe to earn a living. I expect some import copies will surface here for those of you dedicated or curious enough to want it. It’s unlikely that Gull records will want to issue it here. There are nine titles listed:1/ Pull Out & Start Again, I’ll Never Get Over-You, Get Down Lay Down, She Was My Friend. 2/ Future Times, Undercover Man, Something’s Burning, Hard Drink & Easy Women. Jeez, the titles alone are enough to put me off it!
