Felt-Absolute Classic Masterpieces

An English band from Birmingham. They put out ten records and ten singles in ten years from 1979 to 1989. This CD has tracks from five albums and five singles and was released in 1992. Another good CD I have never heard before, bought sometime in the late 90’s. 18 tracks at over 73 minutes. I hear a Joy Division influence on the earlier tracks later ones are more like Echo And The Bunnymen. Five are instrumentals. “Primitive Painters” features Liz Frazer on vocals. Some songs I might call Jangle Pop or Shoegaze. A pretty good band but were not very successful. I had never heard of them or come across them in any of my music discographies. Another one to put on again with more to go on my playlist.
