I have The Both in my basket but price at release put me off. Was underwhelmed by last Aimee Mann album.
The other, lesser known partner in The Both is a chap called Ted Leo. He supported Aimee Mann last time she was playing live over here and he was underwhelming, so I have bookmarked their album but not bought it. It’s the kind of thing I’d get for £5-6.
I was a Replacements – and up to a point, Westerberg, fanatic in my 20s but another raggedy recorded in the basement collection doesn’t appeal. I’m limiting my new music spending considerably this year, so only stuff I’m crazy about gets bought.
Damn! I thought you meant there was a new The Both album out! The only one I know of was out nearly 3 years ago and I’m hoping for a second one. I like it a lot more than Ms Mann’s more “recent” albums so would rather here more The Both than a new solo offering – although either would be preferable to the current silence!
AS for the “I Don’t Care’s” that’s a cracking album isn’t it. Nothing too earth shattering or original but it’s clearly been made with an amount of exuberance and it shows through. Another band that I wouldn’t have “discovered” without the Emusic charts.
