Beautiful songs, full of soul

It's been more than 30 years since rock music was still important and had great relevance. Artists were not pop bunnies who sang with computer voices, but stars with guitars, poets, explainers of the world.

We look back in a series. Today we at a band named Diesel Park West, an English alternative rock band from Leicester, England.

At that time, John Butler had lost his major contract, but not his courage. His band Diesel Park West, which has been trying in vain to come up with something equally great since their 1988 number "Jackie Still's Sad About It", sang undauntedly against the spirit of the times on their fourth record. Beautiful songs, full of soul.

Mid-tempo rock from the folklore corner meets nice ballads without any surprise effect. However, even the 53-minute general attack on the unity waltz will not be enough to achieve a major breakthrough.

Despite the guitars, which have recently been laboriously turned to a combative tone, DPW leader Butler, with his usual plaintive voice, only exhausts himself in endless variations of his now well-known favorite melody - Jackie would be sad about that. https://www.deezer.com/en/artist/214855
