Dexys Midnight Runners – LOVE (LP Vinyl)
Product Details
Kevin Rowland has never been an artist who does anything halfway, from the brass-driven soul of "Come On Eileen" to the theatrical vulnerability of his solo work, and LOVE arrives with the same uncompromising emotional commitment that has defined Dexys across four decades. That the band's catalog spans so few full-length records makes each release an event, and a potential farewell only deepens the stakes.
LOVE, Dexys Midnight Runners’ latest—possibly last-ever—album, is a luminous collection of scenes and reckonings. Stories of family and friends; tales from past and present, all drawn from Kevin Rowland’s life. Each is an individual jewel, threaded together with love. Stories of family and friends; tales from past and present. All drawn from Kevin Rowland’s life, each an individual jewel threaded together with love. Songs begun three decades ago sit alongside those written in the last year. A vivid depiction of Rowland's Irish immigrant childhood ("My Life in England Pt 1"); a moving letter to his grandchildren ("You’re Alright"); a wistful moment at the start of a love affair ("I Want To Be Holding You Next Christmas"); a pin-perfect portrait of time spent with a dying parent ("Once A Man, Twice A Child"); and the difficulties of relationships when you're older ("Old Love"). All deeply personal, all true, all here; the full human span of relationships, family, and intimate emotion.
