The Distractions - Nobody's Perfect
Most will know The Distractions from their excellent Factory Record's 7" Time Goes By So Slow. It's a great song and influenced me into buying their only album (second hand in 1984). As they had no contract with Factory, The Distractions were signed to Island Records and released this album in 1980 - complete with a Peter Saville sleeve.
I've not played this for over 15 years, and now I know why - it's not very good. The album ignores the new wave energy and delivers more of a pub-rock/pop sound with a shiny new major label production. I'm just posting it here for rarity value and I know there are quite a few curious FAC fans who may frequent these pages.
