What a great selection of great songs john has a sound and voice that is just amazing li like analogue electronic sound you can hater those 741 op amps cooing their job at oscillating as a numanoid who is a big fan of foxx I have to admit numan has serious competition from foxx a very underrated artist and one who releases lots of great music
Superb retro analogue synth music that still sounds fresh, interesting and futuristic. Highly recommended to anyone who has an interest in 80s style analogue synth or film music - John Foxx is one of the masters of the genre. A definite five star highly recommended purchase. Outstanding.
This version of The Maths is the live line-up, with Hannah on Violin and guitarists augmenting a still majorly electronic group. Having seen them focus on Johns' harder material supporting OMD recently, which was a bit too intense after 45 minutes, this set is far more eclectic, and hence more enjoyable. The added guitars, although occasional, do lift the dynamics a bit.
There are still a few staples here, with John's vocals rawer and added real instruments, so something to please most of his fans.
Unfortunately the label forgot to credit the contributors in the actual artwork, so there is a sticker on the pvc sleeve, but I couldn't peel this off so once you've unwrapped the item their contribution is 'lost' forever!
