Album Notes
The Beautiful South: Paul Heaton, Jacqueline Abbott, Dave Hemingway (vocals);David Rotheray (guitar); Sean Welch (bass); David Stead (drums). Additional personnel: Paul Weller (guitar); The Kick Horns (brass); Damon Butcher (keyboards); Gary Hammond (percussion). The London Community Gospel Choir (background vocals).QUENCH, the Beautiful South's sixth album, finds them a little more musically introspective and somewhat more melancholy than before, though the songs still maintain the band's twin obsessions: singing about drunks, about drinking, and about being drunk; and disguising brutal and often cruel lyrics with deceptively sweet (verging on sad) music. From the slide-guitar tinged ""How Long's a Tear Take to Dry,"" through the miniature epic-weepie ""The Slide,"" to the jaunty snipe-fest of ""Your Father and I,"" the album swings on a number of intriguing contradictions. ""Dumb"" introduces an oddly introspective mood before breaking into a Motown-influenced chorus. ""Window Shopping for Blinds"" swaps its string-saturated opening for something that mixes a German beer hall and a Western saloon, while ""I May Be Ugly"" is a track that, other than its explicit drug references and crass juxtapositional jokes, wouldn't sound out of place being sung by Jim Croce. The best cut, however, is the piano-driven ""The Table,"" which obliquely examines a familial relationship from the perspective of a table.
