Description

Just released, Peter Bruntnell?s new record ?Houdini And The Sucker Punch? sees Peter re-employing his long-term band members Mick Clews on drums, Dave Little on electric guitar and Peter Noone on bass, along with a number of his favourite musicians making cameos throughout. This is the promotion tour with the full band

So here we are again. Three years on, another album into Peter?s 13 or 14 album catalogue and shouldering the burden of even more sublime reviews. Every possible positive adjective has been called into play, although it must be noted that the word ?sublime? can never be used enough. Not even 2021?s primarily solo, slightly synthy lockdown album succeeded in putting an end to his non-success, despite Mojo echoing the plea that, ?Somehow, some way, this cult and infinitely class songwriter must get his due wider recognition?. The Scottish Daily Express with its 5 star review, slightly frustrated, said, or perhaps yelled, ?I?m getting tired of saying this: He?s brilliant?. The Irish Times thoughtfully combined two quotes into one, saving us the trouble of going back and getting crushed under the sheer weight of Peter?s archive of press quotes: ?With Journey To The Sun, the man whose songs NME once noted should be placed on school curriculums has done it again.? And he continues to do so. But not without a brief foray into dance music, in collaboration with mega pop-hit songwriter Rob Davies. A foray that succeeded in sneaking by, almost completely unnoticed, therefore providing us with no further fresh quotes. If veering off entirely into the dark world of autotune would have increased his chances of hitting the big time, we shall never know. But fortunately, Peter?s taking his chances.
