Squeeze COOL FOR CATS

Squeeze COOL FOR CATS

Squeeze: Chris Difford, Glenn Tilbrook (vocals, guitar); Julian "Jools" Holland (vocals, keyboards); Harry Kakoulli (bass); Gilson Lavis (drums).
All tracks have been digitally remastered.
Remastered U.K. version features two bonus cuts--"I Must Go" and "Ain't It Sad."
With their second album Squeeze truly hit their stride. The crazily hopped- up arrangements and murky production of their debut gave way to more sophisticated approaches on every front. The album's staying power is demonstrated by no less than four songs having become relative staples for the band over the years--the title song, along with "Slap And Tickle," "Up The Junction," and "Goodbye Girl."
They also proudly imbue a couple of the songs with a strong dose of their very British-ness ("Cool For Cats" had the strongest U.K. vocal inflection of any song to cross the ocean in the late seventies outside of Ian Dury). Chris Difford's lyrics find their way into thornier subject matter than most writers in the pop world tend to explore and, combined with Glenn Tilbrook's McCartney-esque melodies and phrasing, the listener is drawn in by the sweet seduction of it all.
