A Brighter Beat - 15th Anniversary Edition

by Malcolm Middleton

supported by

adrian_lewis Malcolm must have a tonne of quality unreleased songs and variations. He's the only depressive that can lift me out of my misery.

Tony Karlsson Malcolms fantastic words, cynical but yet hopeful. Life is hard work. Even 15 years after release its still genius stuff. Favorite track: Fight Like the Night.

What a delight being able to hear these tracks now. Been a fan forever but am thrilled that my current favourite songs, Reggae Song For Paula, Bon Voyage and Fuck-a-Doodle-Don't I didn't know even existed until this week! donsmad1903
