The album is a bit 50/50, a bit to much smooth jazz/ funk for me
Nothing as good as '19' on it, which I bought from Woolworths and played over and over again.

Album 191. Extricate- The Fall

From the moment a saw the opening bars of 'Bill is Dead' on Snub TV with Mark E Smith singing in a Gents toilet, I wanted to own this album.
I'm favorite Fall album.
