Again, I Am The Polish Army


 I Am The Polish Army's My Old Man lp has only briefly left my turntable in the two months since it arrived on these shores. (Paul McCartney's Ram hopped in there for a few spins, as did Phil Henry's Chasing Echoes...but Ram has been a favorite album for about 45 years, and my son plays fiddle on the Phil Henry album, so no shame here or there.) And? Well, obviously it holds up. In fact, even the one track which didn't really make much of an impression on me the first time around--"The Woods"--is just kicking the shit out of me now. Those drums. Those guitars. That voice! 

You really must hop over to /bandcamp and give this album a listen. Here, I'll Frampton* you:


 

Give it a few plays. Let it inhabit your soul. Then throw some money down, brahs and tahs. Times are hard for musicians. 

P.S. And if you need more Emma DeCorsey & Co.in your life, check this out. 

* That's Show You the Way (for the Frampton impaired).
