Rico Bell - Darkside of the Mersey - CD

Rico Bell (accordionist for UK punk legends the Mekons) kicks out stories with all the grace and subtlety of the Pogues riding horses into a funeral parlour on his sophomore Bloodshot Records release. quot;Bell lays into one great roots-rocker after another recalling both the rough-edged passion of England's pub-rock movement and it's more crowd-pleasing American equivalent as practiced by such blue-collar poets as Bruce Springsteen.quot; - THE ONION A/V CLUB Album Tracks 1.
