Shirt No. 7 (02:28) Less of an intentionally confusing title than might be thought, Reilly for all intents and purposes is Durutti no matter the changes through the years -- Vini Reilly does signal another new phase of the bands work, moving into a full embrace of technological possibilities via an Akai sampler. With Reilly and Mitchell joined by a slew of guests -- Swing Out Sister keyboardist Andy Connell; singers Pol, Rob Gray, and Liu Sola; and even former member John Metcalfe on the epic surge Finding the Sea -- Durutti this time around pursued the organic/machine combination to even more successful conclusions than on The Guitar. Reillys singing has often come in for criticism (unwarranted, really, considering how his soft approach effortlessly suits the general atmosphere of Duruttis work), so the slew of sampled and borrowed snippets from other vocalists and musicians that pepper the album makes for an intriguing change. Love No More, the album opener, shows how the approach can work, with acoustic guitar to the fore and echoed, truly haunting snippets of what sound like soul and opera singers wafting through the mix. Another full-on highlight is Otis, with Pols live singing and Connells keyboards combining with a brisk synth loop, building Mitchell drums, an astonishing, uplifting Reilly guitar line, and the legendary singer Mr. Redding himself in a combination that needs to be heard. Mitchells overall work on percussion is less prominent than before but still present, while Reillys guitar efforts are again simply wonderful, further testing new approaches on both acoustic and electric that call to mind everyone from John Fahey to Bootsy Collins. If that last comparison seems strange, give the loud and funky Peoples Pleasure Park a listen, then marvel at how Solas lovely singing and Reillys further guitar runs transform it yet again. The 1996 reissue is one of the most comprehensive of the series, including not merely two more tracks recorded around that time but selections from Sporadic Recordings. Given by Reilly to a friend to release, as Factory otherwise couldnt easily fit it into its own schedule, its a generally more stripped-down affair. The six numbers here include a variety of winners like the upbeat, appropriately titled Real Drums -- Real Drummer and the Pat Nevin/football tribute Shirt No. 7. http://dickthespic.org/-------------------------------------Torrent downloaded from http://thepiratebay.se
