Description
Released exquisitely to coincide with the 2009 Ashes series, all the songs featured on this self-titled album are either loosley or tightly connected to the beautiful game of cricket.
First delivery is 'The Coin Toss' we then spin wickedly into the lead single 'The Age of Revolution, from Jiggery Pokery which tells the tale of the Gatting Ball and features guest cameos from Phil Jupitus and Alexander Armstrong we move through the Trescothian angst of 'The Nightwatchman' to the triple century of 'Test Match Special'. The album really hits 'The Sweet Spot' track 4 with a guest appearance from Cathy Davey.
With trademark melodies and glorious harmonies, the anthemic 'Meeting Mr Miandad' is yet another album highlight. The Duckworth Lewis Method is an album steeped in the love of cricket and pop, the resultant twelve songs are a cacophony of leather and willow turning through a cosmos of searing melodies and all round tunes.
