Tindersticks - Simple Pleasures VINYL LP MOVLP2023
Tindersticks are an English alternative rock band, formed in Nottingham in 1991.
Their sound is characterised by orchestral backing, lounge jazz, and soul; the orchestrations of multi-instrumentalist Dickon Hinchliffe (who left the band in 2006) and the baritone of lead vocalist Stuart A. Staples are the band's hallmarks.
Tindersticks augment their instrumentation with Rhodes piano, glockenspiel, vibraphone, violin, trumpet, trombone, clarinet, bassoon, Hammond organ, and many more.
Their fourth album, Simple Pleasure steered the group into snappier and lighter songs, however the liner notes proved that the recording process was a painstaking experience. The respectful cover of Odyssey's "If You're Looking For A Way Out" is a perfect example of their new influences by soul, gospel and jazz music.
