Poems & Pints

Pretty mediocre collection of poetry, sketches and songs from a pub in Rogerstone, Gwent in Wales. Probably helps if you are Welsh and slightly tipsy. The crowd here are obviously enjoying it. Based on a popular BBC TV programme from the 70's which I vaguely remember avoiding. Includes such names as Max Boyce, Mari Griffith, Neil Lewis and John Luce, Philip Madoc and Triban. Poems & Pints - Side Two.

That's a very unfair analysis of this album and cast. The music is certainly twee in parts, but the poetry is of a much higher persuasion.

Maybe I was a bit harsh. Thanks for your feedback!
