ASLAN – LOVING ME LATELY (EMI) – Review by Chris Welch

Highly rated newcomers from Ireland who sound like they mean business with a performance that is probably a shade too fast for radio plays. Apparently, scientific research has shown millions tune out when the rhythmic pulse becomes too frantic. Pity, because I find this all rather exciting, with its shouting, bawling, hammering and bashing. Uh oh – I just heard, Wireless Telegraphy House have given it the thumbs down.
