Bronco Bullfrog
The Sidelong Glances Of A Pigeon
Recorded at the now famous Liam Watson's Toe Rag Studios (White Stripes, Tame Impala, Billy Childish...), 'The Sidelong
Glances...' was the third album by British pop-psychers Bronco Bullfrog. For a band clearly influenced by late
'60s/early '70s sounds, to be surrounded by vintage sixties equipment felt like a dream. As bass player Louis Wiggett
recalls: "...the general 'old school' approach lent itself to our belief (probably a desire) that we sounded like some
obscure noisy pop band who'd recorded one 45 for Immediate, and then one for Deram, and then a final one for Hit-Ton
Schallplatten, all within three months in late 1966." Here you'll find the classic Bronco sound (inventive songwriting,
memorable hooks, three-part harmonies, hard guitars...) mixed with cool studio experimentation in the best '60s style
(tape phasing, piano strings played with plectrums...). Including iconic songs like 'Barnaby Slade,' 'Octopus,' 'Look at
Me,' 'Sunday'...
Originally released by Spanish label Mushroom Pillow in 2002 and out of print for many years, here's a welcomed vinyl
reissue. Includes original artwork and insert with liner notes, lyrics and photos. RIYL: The Kinks, Badfinger, The
Hollies, The Who, The Move, The Raspberries... File under psychedelic, power pop, indie pop... "...vintage sounding
technicolor power-pop..." ~Garwood Pickjon (Popdiggers).
