The National - First Two Pages of Frankenstein

[Jonny Ingbar]

Sorry to pick this back up but the Taylor Swift collaboration intrigued me so I followed that up.
Is it me or does it actually sound more The National than some songs on this album?

Didn't the guitarist from The National produce some of her stuff?

good show on BBC sounds where the band go through all their albums worth a listen if you have not come across it already

Just listened to this.
It was so enjoyable.

I first caught up with them in 2003 and been into every one of their albums.
Found the discussions about each one accompanied by a song quite emotional.

I’ve turned into a right auld soppy git

yeah really enjoyed also liked the wee stories behind some of the songs and how they came about, I understand how they have matured as song writers but hearing some of their earlier songs played such as Abel kind of wish they were still producing that sort of stuff but tbf likes of the Clash had to progress with London Calling so guess it is just a natural thing

They played Abel last time I saw them (2019, I think
