Full review

I will admit right from the very start that this is one of my favourite albums of all time (my favourite being the lead singer's only solo album). It is a 100% pure classic. Danny Wilson were a 1980's group from Scotland comprising of Gary and Kit Clark and Ged Grimes.
Their music was in a similar style to Deacon Blue, The Bible and Prefab Sprout. Most people will be familiar with their biggest hit which was "Mary's Prayer" a soulful tune about lost love. However the whole album is full of great songs which are a tribute to the song writers are.
The tracks are:
1. Davy
2. Mary's Prayer
3. Lorraine Parade
4. Aberdeen
5. Nothing Ever Goes To Plan
6. Broken China
7. Steamtrains To The Milkyway
8. Spencer Tracey
9. You Remain An Angel
10. Ruby's Golden Wedding
11. Girl I Used To Know
12. Five Friendly Aliens
13. I Won't Be Here When You Get Home

With the exception of Ruby's golden wedding they are all about lost love or missed opportunities, but don't let that put you off, there are up-beat takes on the situation along with the mellow ballads.
Buy it and give it a try you might be pleased with your choice.
