The 1985 Listening Post - The Colourfield - The Colourfield

The Colourfield - The Colourfield


#118
April 6 1985
The Colourfield
The Colourfield
Genre: Twee
3.75 out of 5

Highlights:
Thinking of You

Terry Moore was always the best purveyor of Twee. If you listen to this too many times you create bands like Belle & Sebastian. Because this is exactly that. 
Only it’s much more. It’s lush and pastoral. And feels it stepped out of 1971. 
Does Terry Hall get enough credit for his versatility and contributions beyond FB3 and “Our Lips Are Sealed”?
This record starts out great and then Peters out towards the end.
