US LP pressing. BARRY ADAMSON is one of the most original, inventive and distinctive voices in British contemporary music and Inertia is proud to release his eighth album - 'Back to the Cat' - an epic adventure in sound. Barry's new album is where it all comes together, a life's passions poured into ten tracks that at once sound strangely familiar and yet dazzlingly new. A musical odyssey through noir jazz, sun-drenched pop ballads, fractious urban funk, devilish gospel, heavenly blues and subversive soul. Not to mention a Hammond organ salute to the late, great Jimmy Smith. Back to the Cat' reflects a life's dedication to the Big Themes both in music and life. It is the Big One - the boldest, most brilliant album of his career. Barry Adamson has been doing things differently ever since he strapped on a bass guitar to play for Magazine as a teenager in late Seventies Manchester. Five seminal post-punk albums later, he went on to play a vital part in Nick Cave's Bad Seeds. In 1987 he was ready to step out alone, with a reinvention of Elmer Bernstein's 'The Man with the Golden Arm'. Beaten Side of Town, Straight 'Til Sunrise, Spend a Little Time, Shadow of Death Hotel, I Could Love You, Walk on Fire, Flight, Civilization, People, Psycho Sexual
