Very surprised to hear the opening of "Rubber Gloves" in a new ad from AGL here in Australia that played when I opened a YouTube video today! Nice to hear it, just a shame it's being used by such an awful company... www.facebook.com/aglenergy/videos/213924851335119/ |

Like the riff, but I must admit I do find the rest a bit awkward and stilted.

Yes quite a decent riff but as soon as the vocal kicks in it all goes a bit weird.
I half liked Andy’s album from memory. Will give it another spin

Yeah, it is a good album. A world away from Quo though.
Andy's voice isn't what it was (whose is when you're well into your 70's?) but its perfectly adequate for delivering the songs, especially the slower ones which are given a nice gravelly touch.
I still play the album. Quite a lot actually.

If i’m being honest, i like Ruby and Roy, Rubber Gloves, Right as Ninepence and Tick My Box but Andy’s singing is rank and I wouldn’t play the album to anyone in the car.
