WEDDING PRESENT – tommy 30 (LP Vinyl)

George Best became The Wedding Present´s first album in 1988. But Tommy - released one year later - was made up of the early songs from the singles and radio sessions that had catapulted them from being bedsit musicians into indie darlings: ´Go Out And Get ´Em, Boy!´ with its purposefully super fast guitars, ´You Should Always Keep In Touch With Your Friends´ - an anthem for those long time Wedding Present fans, ´My Favourite Dress´ - the only single in the collection that ended up on George Best - the classic, fraught tale of losing one´s first love that perfectly played on the heart strings and began David Gedge´s legacy of understanding everyone's heartbreak. Tommy 30 - a brand new re-recording of Tommy - did not come about simply as a ´follow on´ to George Best 30. The band felt - during a Tommy 30th anniversary concert tour - that the songs had grown and evolved. Enter a more confident vocalist... an altogether growlier guitar. A bigger sound. The urgency of a 25 year old Gedge is replaced with a charming vocalist with years of experience. Everything's warmer and, maybe, gentler... but in a satisfying way. It´s like your old friends have come home to see you. * Scopitones
