Momus "Momus, Timelord" CD (1993, Creation) long unavailable

Description: Here we have a true prize for devotees of Nicholas Currie, aka MOMUS: his long unavailable Momus, Timelord CD, a UK import released in 1993 by Creation Records, now long out of print. This album reveals a much more vulnerable, introspective Momus than we had ever seen before, intended to win the heart of a special woman who Nick would later wed. The music here is bedroom pop, recorded on the cheap (and all the more intimate for it), and catchy in the extreme… bursting with hooks that cunningly conceal the bite of his words. And what words! Nick plays the English language like a virtuoso, achieving dazzling heights in every lyric. No one can write a song quite like Momus. His luscious melodies lull you into a relaxed mood, then a well-placed line cuts through to startle. This disc puts aside the strange ideas and perversities of previous Momus albums, though, seeking a much more philosophical mood. The charm, intelligence and quiet humor of the man shine through at every turn, enhanced by the delightful quirkiness of his pop tunes. Let me put it this way: if you are a fan, ownership of this disc is mandatory. Momus, Timelord has been out of print for over two decades, and has never been released in the States at all. The disc shows very slight wear, but looks great and plays flawlessly. Track list Platinum Enlightenment You've Changed Landrover Rhetoric Suicide Pact Christmas on Earth Breathless
