REALLY looking forward to Saun & Starr's debut album this month (19th May I believe) and both sides of the "Look Closer" 45 have been getting played loads recently. Great official video here just out to promote the title track and album release :thumbsup:

The CD is absolutely fantastic. The drum sound Dap Tone get is better than anyone has managed since the mid seventies and the songs are also nearly all well above average' as evidenced by "Mr Teddy" above. Such a smart composition. "If only" is magnificent.
