Album Notes Stereophonics: Kelly Jones (vocals, guitar); Richard Jones (harmonica, bass); Stuart Cable (drums).Additional personnel includes: Marshall Bird (harmonica, piano, Wurlitzer piano, background vocals); Glenn Hyde (harmonica); Hazel Fernandes, Aileen McLaughlin, Anna Ross (background vocals).Principally recorded at Real World Studios, Bath, England.On JUST ENOUGH EDUCATION TO PERFORM, Brit-poppers Stereophonics offer another refreshingly unpretentious album in which frontman Kelly Jones sings about everyday topics and emotions in his inimitable winsome voice, the whole thing set to outrageously catchy melodies and driven by a strong guitar-based sound. Think a slightly grungier version of the La's and you're not far off the mark, although the album's far too stylistically varied to really be pigeonholed. "Have a Nice Day" could be Cheap Trick without the irony. Jones says the magnificent "Mr. Writer" was inspired by ELO and Stevie Wonder, although it could also pass for early-'70s John Lennon remade a la the Rutles. The exquisitely countryish "Step on My Old Size Nines" comes off as a modern alternative-rock take on early Brinsley Schwarz. Gorgeous stuff, and often rather uplifting.

Report this review Review created: 11/05/07 by: well as a phonics fan i buy all their albums the day they are released i love this album like i do all of their but if i was being totally honest i think this album is their weakest one not because the music is poor on it or the songs arnt good but for the fact its a very experiment album and not a very rocky album but it is easy listening and def worth buying but it doesnt sum what the phonics music is all about but def worth a listen!

Report this review Review created: 05/06/06 by: I must admit I quite often look on ebay at the CD's just to browse really, I like Stereophonics and bid at the last minute and won at a very good price! The CD is great, the price was great, and I must say, I still like the thrill of finding out if I've won a bid! For a used CD I got a bargain! Review ID: 10000000001099613 Was this review helpful?
