Blessings to whoever decided to make this cassette with the 12" mixes on the other side, it's been a lifetime companion.referencing The Orange Juice (LP, Album) 823 796-1
Fabulous sounding, this UK OG. Such an underrated band. Top notch ‘80s indie pop.- One, and not too far in the distant past there used to be bands that were both tuneful and literary. Scotland's Orange Juice was one of those bands, and with leader Edwyn Collins' remarkable skills as a songwriter, but also a gentleman who appreciates pop music culture from the not-so-far past, at the time of this recording, which was in 1984. Orange Juice brings up the idea of a crooning Al Green, or some other Memphis soul artist, as well as Neil Young in his electric guitar phrase. The combination of those two make up the sound of Orange Juice, but of course, with a very post-punk attitude.
"The Orange Juice" or sometimes known as "The Third Album" was the band's last full-length album. And one that had only two members at the time of this recording, along with Collins there's the drummer Zeke Manyika. "The Third Album" is produced by Dennis Bovell, who was known in the 1980s for his 'dub' production work for bands like The Slits and The Pop Group. His work has always been dub music, but also the more experimental British bands and artists. So, the fact that Edwyn and company are using Bowell's services is an interesting collaboration, since Orange Juice is basically a guitar-pop band, with a rather traditional manner. Or are they? Again, Edwyn Collins has a very Scottish white soul croon, but his lyrics are also very sophisticated in the tradition of Cole Porter and Lorenz Hart. One can criticize his writing as being a tad post-modern in a sense his work is very much about the 'songwriting,' but he's equally skilled in putting a stunning melody along with his words. When you add it all up, they are lovely songs about communication among lovers or a commentary on the world of Edwyn Collins.
Clearly, an artist who has a record collection, and its the love of music or certain types of pop songs that makes Orange Juice very enjoyable. "The Orange Juice" is a solid work that is a tribute to the power of pop songs, but also an individual approach to the art as well. -Tosh Berman referencing The Orange Juice (LP, Album) 823 796-1
