Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * *

There are two spheres of appreciation in which an artist always knows they have struck a chord with the audience, the wild jubilation of the ecstatic, the raucous noise that greets the beginning and the finale of a song as if the world was ending and the only way to commemorate it is with wolf-whistles and weirdly loud, high pitched yells in which to burst the ear drums of those around you and claim that it does no harm. There is also the simpler, more profound Hush of wide eyed contemplation and understanding of delighted, but sober, euphoria, the prelude of true gratitude before the heartfelt and meaningful applause.
