Market Harbour

[WiredOut]

I'm guessing it isn't all like " 15. You & Me (That's What I Want)" though.

How do you mean ?

Is it a cover song or something ?

good find there!!! sounds a bit clam-abuse-esque, which in small doses on the album, can only be a good thing methinks!

Hee-hee! What the fuck is going on this time? Love it.

Who is Jazzy?

My guess is could it possibly by any chance be Ginger's little girl?

[Ben Wright]

Fair play to the flame haired one, he's got a canny knack of producing tunes, and not just any ol' shite either.

21 tunes is indeed mint.

And I know you shouldn't judge and album by a cover, but that cover is fucking class. Props to who ever designed it.

He's called her that before, so all signs point to 'yes'.

Heres Cargo's bit of info on the album......

Ginger is set to add to the legend with the release of new solo album “Market Harbour”. Impossible again to categorise the album is 21 songs/segues/ and sixty minutes and twenty four seconds long. With no break in the music throughout the album, and packed with a weird and wonderful array of samples and loops in addition to instrumentation, the record is a showcase for the diverse talent of Ginger.

From the classic Ginger-esque opener and first single “Casino Bay” (a mid tempo stormer awash with hooks) to country n western meets “Hats Off To Roy Harper”-esque skiffle instrumental “The Ninns Of Mourning”, from the Roger Waters infused “House Of Moths” to the punked up three minute blast of “Overeasy”, from the Burt Bacharach lilt of 67 second instrumental “Tenants” to the beautiful soaring instrumentation and melodies of “I Knew You (An Amensis)”, from the do-wop pop of “Couple Trouble” to the rolling toms of instrumental “Eye Of The Rotunda” and the slow build epic album closer “Shatterproof” with it's haunting refrain of “How Can You Kill Something / That Will Not Die”, “Market Harbour” is a wildly ambitious album that only someone of Gingers creative talents could pull off as successfully as he does.

*salvates with anticipation*

reading CARGOS info about the album seems to confirm what gingers band were saying at sheffield! gotta feeling this albums gonna raise gingers profile up a notch or two-------my guess its gonna be his best solo project yet

country n western meets “Hats Off To Roy Harper”-esque skiffle instrumental “The Ninns Of Mourning”

A bit like the end of Country Boy on the HWC album, mixed with a little Can't Drink You Pretty, maybe.

Do you think there wil be a Japanese edition of Market Harbour with extra tracks?
I would think a Japanese edition yes but extra tracks probably not due to the fact it already has 21 tracks on it. Plus the other track from the single. 'How Legends Love.'
If anyone knows any info about a Japanese release then please shout up.

Heres the cover for new single.

I can't wait to hear it!

You & Me sounds like The Avalanches mixed with a bit of rock. Or Clam Abuse meets Yoni.

21 songs will definitely have an indulgent but varied mixture of stuff and no doubt much of it will be genius as usual.

Not looking that way. HMV isn't listing one and Amazon is selling a UK import.

I'm assuming that of the 21 tracks that are "segues" on the album, they will be short bits of noise/music/dialogue bridging some of the songs. Which should all make for one hell of a slab of music and creativity.

I ordered mine direct from Cargo as soon as I heard that I could! Just received an email saying the date had changed as it looks like the album and the single are getting shipped on the same day 24 December. Whether that means they're put the CDs in a package and post it on Xmas Eve or it'll be at my door on Xmas Eve, the great news is that I probably won't need to wait til end of Jan! Ho, ho Merry Christmas!!! Here's hoping anyway!

[Sir Euan]

=O hope I get the same email!

[Ean]

I did.

Not holding my breath though. It says shipping date is the 24th, so it'll be pushing it if it arrives this year...
