Description: | The black vinyl edition of this classic album. Originally released in 1996.
â?¢ â??Moseleyâ?? takes its name from an area in Birmingham, â??Moseley Shoalsâ?? is a tribute to Muscle Shoals, the legendary soul recording studios in Alabama. A low-key start to their career was boosted by two things â?? the endorsement of two of Britainâ??s biggest pop stars â?? Paul Weller and Noel Gallagher, and the exposure given to the first single, The Riverboat Song, by Chris Evans on his hit TV show â??TFI Fridayâ??.
â?¢ The album was produced by Wellerâ??s producer at the time â?? Brendan Lynch, giving it a strong, organic R&B feel (influenced by the Small Faces and Wellerâ??s solo recordings) with a pronounced 60s flourish, mixing in traces of Beatles and Stones, as well as elements of prog-rock and psychedelia, adding an even more eclectic flavour to their sound. - Gatefold sleeve. 2 x 180g Black vinyl.
Matrix / Runout Stamps are identical to [r8392563] 2016 Red vinyl pressing.
"Moseley Shoals" is the iconic second studio album by British rock band Ocean Colour Scene, released in 1996 on LP format by Island Records. This record captures the essence of Britpop and alternative rock from the mid-90s, featuring standout tracks like "The Riverboat Song," "The Day We Caught The Train," and "You've Got It Bad." The album's energetic guitar riffs, soulful vocals, and melodic hooks have made it a timeless classic among fans of British music. Ocean Colour Scene emerged from Birmingham?s vibrant music scene in the early 1990s and quickly gained recognition for their distinctive sound blending mod revival with contemporary influences. Their breakthrough came with "Moseley Shoals," which reached number two on the UK Albums Chart and achieved multi-platinum status. Island Records, renowned for its diverse roster including legends like Bob Marley & U2, has been instrumental in shaping modern music since its founding in 1959. With this release, both artist and label cemented their place in musical history. |
