Hide AdAs ever, the Fanclub present a textbook representation of democracy in action, with Here offering four tracks each by founding members Norman Blake, Gerard Love and Raymond McGinley.
From the almighty chime of opener I’m In Love through The First Sight’s ecstatic soul-search and the paean to unerring friendship With You, Here is a collection of twelve songs about the only things that truly matter - life and love.
Here was recorded with the band’s soundman David Henderson alongside regular drummer Francis Macdonald and keyboard player Dave McGowan in three distinctly different environments, initially at Vega in rural Provence, then at Raymond’s home in Glasgow before mixing at Clouds Hill in the industrial heart of Hamburg.
This is a record that embraces maturity and experience and hugs them close and as always seems to be the case with the Fanclub seems like the effortless work of a band entirely confident in their own craft as they near three decades of working together.
