5 out of 5 stars 4 star album, 5 star bonus tracks.......2007-01-27

Vini Reilly's LC is a subtle and understated, albeit rather dark, sophomore album (it is like a counterpart to New Order's equally sombre debut album, Movement). But, in typically perverse Factory Records fashion, what makes this re-issued album really worth buying are the bonus tracks. The Martin Hannett-produced trio For Mimi, Belgian Friends, and Self-Portrait, are as close to musical perfection as you're ever likely to hear. The first of this heavenly trio sets a superbly funky jazz break (produced perfectly, of course) against Vini's languid guitar extemporising. It sounds like funked-up, mellowed-out Joy Division, if such a thing makes sense. As for Belgian Friends- it is simply sublime- the song bubbles along with beautiful, almost imperceptably subtle chord changes, and the instrumentation is exquisite- almost rapturously beautiful. Self-Portrait has yet another crisp, tight drumbeat off-set by deliciously wonky guitar treatments, while the obbligato of the keyboards adds a classical touch. The other bonus tracks are, unbelievably, almost as good, especially A Christmas for your Thoughts. They are worth the price of the album by themselves.

But what about the album itself? Well, its subtle, its moody and introspective, but despite standouts like Never Known and The Act Committed, it could have done with a sprinkling of Martin Hannett's magic dust (that is- his production skills, not his drugs!) Also, the drumming on the album proper is noticably less tight compared with the bonus tracks, which featured a brilliant funk drummer called Donald Johnston, who sadly fell out with Reilly before the album was recorded. This is a pity, because it's mouth-watering to think what the album would have sounded like with that guy on board.

It may sound perverse, but buy it for the bonus tracks, even though the album itself is pretty good as well.

5 out of 5 stars Very Good Indeed.......2005-08-20

I definitely like this this one a little more than Return of, even though they're both essential if you're gonna get into Durutti Column. Bruce Mitchell's drums go with Vini's style a little better than Hannett's beats and synth experiments if you ask me. But, most importantly the music is all beautiful New Wave Manchester Jazz, a classic Factory record.

5 out of 5 stars The arrival of.......2001-08-23

This, with the benefit of many years hindsight, was always my favourite DC album. Perhaps watching the squirrels scuttle along the oak branches outside my dorm in time to Vinis' wandering guitar lines, wrapped in a something close enough to a song to have student meaning. Whatever. Don't have a problem with his singing because that was never really it. Perhaps this effort is slightly more robust in texture than the ethereal Return of the DC, but I think the fact that this is appreciably Vini rather than Vini plus Martin Hannet is what shades it over Return for me.

5 out of 5 stars Self portrait.......2000-02-19

Generally regarded as a false step, Vini Reilly's second album features vocals sung by himself. In retrospect, it's not that bad. His shy and calm singing suits the songs and it doesn't sound cheesy or unlistenable. While the debut "The return of the DC" was a collection of sketches and soundscapes, "LC" is one of Vini's most song-oriented and accessible albums. Best tracks here are the sad "Sketch for dawn I", the up-tempo "Jacqueline", and the intimate "Messidor". This CD also contains some worthwhile bonus tracks. Overall, the playful rhythms and the gorgeous guitar lines still sound timeless. Another classic album in Durutti Column's discography!

      3 out of 5 stars Story of a good blues man.......2001-03-19

      The life stories of blues musicians are often as bittersweet as the music they played. L.C. "Good Rockin" Robinson is a good example. Born in southeast Texas in 1918, L.C. and his brother A.C. travelled and played the blues around Texas in the 1930's, but never made it big. L.C. served in World War II and then came west to join his brother, who had settled in the San Francisco Bay area. L.C. worked in a laundry and played and sang the blues when he could get a gig. He played fiddle and steel guitar, which he held in his lap. L.C. was discovered by Arhoolie Records in the early '70's, a few years before his death and he cut this album. The album is a little uneven. Four of the last 6 songs are gospel numbers in which he duets with his brother, A.C. There's nothing wrong with mixing the two, but the quality of the blues cuts is clearly superior --- especially the first 6 cuts on which L.C. is jointed by "Pinetop" Perkins" on piano and Charlie Musselwhite on harmonica.

      Some of these songs are brilliant, like "Ups and Downs", which is also featured on the Arhoolie Anniversary Album. If only he had been discovered at the right time, L.C. Robinson might be remembered as one of the all time greats of blues.

      I haven't really been into rock much, but this guy is too good not to have in my collection. I first heard him when he was in a group called Smoking Budda as they did various shows around NYC. This dude rocks on the drums and can sing too! Favorite tracks include Love Life, Deep As I Go, and Breathe. None of them are bad though. Hopefully some audio will be up at some point so others can hear for themselves.
