      Tim Burgess and Kurt Wagner first got together to work on Burgess's album 'Oh No I Love You'. They labelled it Country and North Western with nods to their mood and geography. Add Love of Life Orchestra's Peter Gordon into the mix and the result is the sax heavy soulful charm of 'Oh Men'. Languid of pace and unrushed in demeanour with elements of all three contributors oddly adding up to greater than the sum of its parts. 'I Couldn't Say it to Your Face' - A song of tragedy and hope written by Arthur Russell. Peter Gordon who plays many of the instruments on this version was a key member of Russell's band and has breathed new life into the song that was a favourite on Burgess's recent European tour.
