Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * *

Originality is the cornerstone of art, it requires oxygen, it expects progression, and it obliges when an idea comes to mind, one perhaps from left field as inspiration strikes, and as Ledley take to the avant-garde electronic self-titled debut, what transpires is an album that defies expectation and probability.

The album, Ledley, sees Ralph Clarkson, Chris Williams, and Riann Vosloo pay tribute to the Tottenham Hotspur’s player Ledley King and in the electronica improvisation the adventurous nature of the piece is intrinsic to the motion of unexpected subject matter given prominence and dutiful obligation.
