    Undeservedly dropped like a brick by the UK music press for something more trendy and new, as usual. This can maybe be best described as the Mondays coming down after the highs of their recent found fame, some truely strange production choices in a couple of songs imho, making them sound a bit awkward...but if you know the shape the group was in...many gems buried in there though and definitely evolving their style 😉
    It’s fairly obvious from a couple of songs Ryder wanted to move closer to the sound he later succesfully captured with Black Grape.

      Hello to everyone from destroyed by capitalists USSR circa 1992-1993! At the time I was a russian teenager on drugs and had this album on a cassette, when it had been realised. No any vinyls, CDs, just the tape and a Sony Walkman and stoned companies, no work, no any illusions...
      I remember I've been listened that everywhere I go for one or two years and it was my favourite Mondays album (okay, maybe Number 2 after the Pills), which was much better than the dull Republic. Years go by and now I'm clear for 10> years, have three children and normal family, but I still find this album really good with no weak songs. And - yes! - I think the producers team is right and this Carribean sound is still fresh in 2020.
      Peace for all and don't use drugs!

          Yes Please! was the last studio album that the British band Happy Mondays recorded before leaving Factory Records.It was released in 1992 and was produced by Chris Frantz and Tina Weymouth of Talking Heads. The album is most famous for allegedly driving independent label Factory Records to bankruptcy, having cost too much to record.
